Leadership is a vital part of delivering high quality healthcare
for all healthcare professionals. With the introduction of the NHS
Leadership Academy, Leadership Framework and the Competency
Framework there has never been a better time for paramedics to hone
their leadership skills and expertise. This is the first book of
its kind to demonstrate just how vital leadership skills are for
all paramedics and explore how paramedics can lead in their
everyday practice. Divided into two parts the book looks at both
the context of contemporary leadership for paramedic practice and
then the specific skills of leadership. The book includes chapters
on: What is leadership and who does it?Communication skills &
leadershipWorking as a teamDecision makingConflict
resolutionMentorship and preceptorship Each chapter includes case
studies, examples and quotes from real life paramedic practice to
show what good leadership looks like in everyday clinical settings.
The book also features profiles of real paramedics that demonstrate
the role that leadership plays for all practitioners from novice
student paramedics through to specialist paramedic practitioners.
Essential reading for student paramedics and practitioners
alike.Contributors: Kevin Barrett, Amanda Y Blaber, Graham Harris,
Paul Jones, Linda Nelson, Mel Newton, Caryll Overy, Marion
Richardson, Paul Street and Surinder Walia."The notion of
Leadership within the United Kingdom's (UK) National Health Service
(NHS) has without question been one which continues to draw debate
amongst policy makers, executive officers, service users,
professional bodies and regulators.This book explores the many
paradigms in which the notion of Leadership plays an ever
increasing role in the lives of healthcare professionals. Its
interaction with summaries of leadership ideologies, along with the
questions posed by the authors, allow students to delve into the
role of leadership, illustrating the various ways in which strong
leadership helps shape and improve patient/client outcomes. The
book explores the many paradigms in which the notion of Leadership
plays an ever increasing role in the lives of healthcare
professionals.This publication is not only an essential read for
student paramedics, but other healthcare students embarking upon a
career within the healthcare setting. Along with student
paramedics, this book will assist experienced paramedics and those
responsible for educating and mentoring paramedic students.Drawing
on a vast range of experience and knowledge from a number of
contributors to the book, the text provides insightful and
illuminating ideas and suggestions as to how the notion of
Leadership helps practitioners develop their own knowledge and
skills as they progress through their career to become registered
healthcare professionals.I strongly recommend this book to those
starting their careers as healthcare professionals." John
