Understanding Doctors' Performance addresses possible reasons why
doctors under-perform, covering specific areas such as education
and training, physical and mental health, workload, personality,
organisational culture, drug and alcohol misuse, and cognitive
impairment. It draws together evidence, and describes the factors
(apart from clinical competence) that adversely affect performance
and how they can be prevented, identified, assessed and addressed.
This practical and easy to read book is invaluable for NHS
managers, medical directors, chief executives and board members,
along with directors of human resources in healthcare and
healthcare professionals interested in the assessment of
performance or the management of underperformance.
Jenny King was born in London during the Blitz. Her parents, both
teachers, encouraged her to write poetry as a child and overcame
wartime paper rationing to make her a book to write them in. Her
poems view the world calmly, thoughtfully. They consider memory,
peace and its opposite, the inwardness and variety of the natural
world, and how an individual relates to others. All the poems are
concerned with the interest and excitement of language itself. Some
use traditional patterns in unexpected ways, sometimes including
rhyme, sometimes in more fluid forms. They work for clarity and
memorable perception. Accessible language and natural rhythms are
always important though used variously. Looking into the known - or
half known - past of family history, the poem can disclose the
fallibility of memory but also how present relates to past and how
the present with its difficulties intrudes on any consideration of
how to live. These poems result from a long writing life and study
of both past and contemporary poets.
