patients and doctors making decisions together

idea posted by varsha Head/VP/GM-Quality, frac

if docter and patient alltogether work as take decisions together by

  • Answering questions
  • Sharing information 
  • Involving families, carers and advocates
  • Responsibility for seeking a patient's consent  Sharing information and discussing treatment options
  • Discussing side effects, complications and other risks
  • Making decisions
  • Expressions of consent
  • Recording decisions
  • Reviewing decisions
  • Involving children and young people in making decisions
  • Advance care planning

so over all we can say Good Medical Practice requires doctors to be satisfied that they have consent from a patient, or other valid authority, before undertaking any examination or investigation, providing treatment, or involving patients in teaching and research. GMP(good medical practices) will definetly help in building healthy relation between health care staff and patients

healthcare is nota single man concern so there is no moral responsibility on anybody to speak for anybody else.

We all should be responsible for this as it is our concern.

patients & doctors can play vital role in deciding the outcomes of treatment availaible & required.

Patient safety & care should be the prime concern for any treatment process.

Patients need to be primary concern for health care staff

idea posted by Ratnakar Naik General Practitioner, Apollo Group
Doctors, including specialists, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nutritionists, and others need to be organized into team delivery systems with patients at the center. This is doable, and known, and is already done in some settings today. These best team practices must be identified and then taught in health professions schools as the best methods to provide education to health care consumers.

Consumers should speak for themselves

idea posted by Rohit Khanna Project Leader/Managing Consultant, Accenture
I believe history has already shown us that consumer activism usually begins as a negative reaction and that it may be unrealistic to expect the independent interests of consumers to align with those of payers, providers, public officials, and other stakeholders.AIDS activism, the disability rights movement, and consumer activism in mental health all arose from the spontaneous and independent self-assertion of consumer populations fighting for their own objectives; and all achieved far-reaching impact. So Consumers themselves should take a stand for what they want
