Are You Safe

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

“Are you safe?” is a general question we ask for whom we care and be responsible in our life. It might be directly or indirectly related to us in any relationship for example – as a family, friend, colleague, neighbour, stranger or as a humanity. We may be safe in our homes but if we are not, we will be victims of others which should be highlighted or raised complaints for our safety. As we can study the cases in our country like the topic of rape, fraudsters, theft, fights, etc matters where in human sentiments are hurt for vicious motives. Through a small book we are trying to put a limelight for a few stories or quotes that we believe should be taken for the safety concern. Thanks to all the co-authors who have genuinely written their soul in this content and taken a step ahead to raise a voice for being "Are you safe?". This book is based on their own stories and should only be considered as motivation for reading and not for any other motives in life.

How To Stay Safe When Entering The Healthcare System

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

This book is an urgent call to action centering on the author's thirty-five-year mission to raise awareness of the 250,000 lives that are lost each year to preventable medical harm and the harm faced by healthcare professionals in the form of workplace violence, depression, and burnout resulting in suicide rates higher than almost every other industry. The book's narrative-driven timeline follows the author's 2,452-mile walk to thirty-seven Major League Ballparks using his love of baseball as a way to garner media attention for his mission and indulge in the welcome relief of baseball nostalgia. Written for both medical professional and lay readers, the book pulls in stories of patients and caregivers harmed as a catalyst for change in our healthcare system, and as a way for the public to connect with the issues faced by healthcare professionals. Also included are pivotal anecdotes and stories from his medical career that propelled him to become an internationally recognized patient safety leader. This book will educate, inform, and entertain medical, nursing, and allied healthcare professionals; patients and families affected or harmed by medical care; healthcare leaders; medical, nursing and pharmacy students; and politicians interested in healthcare reform. After reading this book, the lay public will be empowered to question healthcare professionals about the quality of their care and learn how to stay safe when entering the healthcare system. WORDS OF PRAISE The personal stories reveal how Dr. Mayer confronts brutal truths of preventable patient harm, fixes what needs to be changed, and teaches next generation physicians to be leaders in patient safety. You won't want to put the book down, a real page-turner. --Rosemary Gibson, Nationally Acclaimed Author of Wall of Silence and China Rx Dr. Mayer is a literal trailblazer in patient safety, as his astonishing walk across America attests. This book cements his legacy as a patient safety titan, and is, at its core, a vital wake-up call to action for all of us. Read this book and prepare to be inspired. I know I was. --Steve Burrows, Writer/Director of HBO’s Award-winning Documentary Bleed Out. Dr Mayer is an international leader in promoting patient safety. This book is part of that mission. It is a book about an epic walk. It is a book about the art of good medical care. And it is a book that will help readers understand that we all have a role in making our health system safer. --Kim Oates AO MD DSC FRACP, Emeritus Professor, Child and Adolescent Health University of Sydney, Australia Dr. Mayer put himself on the line in walking for patient safety representing all involved in healthcare just as he put his career on the line through unwavering transparency, commitment to social justice, and support for all members of the care teams. It is leaders like Dr. Mayer and the stories within these pages that inspire their courageous dedication to do the right thing for every patient every day every time. --Gwen Sherwood, PhD, RN, FAAN, ANEF, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Nursing, Co-Editor, Quality and Safety in Nursing: A Competency Approach to Improving Outcomes

Get Ready

BOOK EXCERPT:

The definitive guide to getting ready for and staying safe after a major earthquake in the Pacific Northwest. FEMA recommends being prepared for two weeks of self-sufficiency after it occurs, and this handbook will show you how with clear, informative, and easy-to-implement steps. Recent seismic activity has made national headlines and underscored the fact that the Cascadia fault line off the coast of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and Northern California is overdue for a major earthquake. And when it happens, living conditions could be akin to those in the mid-nineteenth century. This handbook covers the supplies you need to stay safely in place, including water, food (and food prep), first aid, sanitation, health and hygiene needs, shelter and bedding, and light/fire. It also includes lists of what to purchase and how to store it, as well as simple excercises to gain confidence in perfoming necessary tasks. Learn what to do during and immediately after an earthquake, how to develop a reunification plan, and how to communicate when basic infrastructure is down. It also addresses the particular concerns of those living in coastal areas (the tsunami zone) as well as those outside of the severe impact zone. It covers long-term ways to stay safe without modern conveniences and a crash course in survival techniques should the quake happen before all preparations are complete. Get Ready! presents information in clear, practical, and managable steps, equipping the reader with the skills to care for themselves and their loved ones should a major earthquake hit. And when it does, the internet will not be an option, making this reference handbook invaluable. If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you need Get Ready!

Mindful Safety

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Synthesising the latest thinking from neuroscience and psychology with the practice of safety management, Mindful Safety shows how a much stronger safety culture can be built from the ground up. Case studies, applied research and practical exercises all demonstrate how attention, and the ability to focus, can significantly boost performance and resilience, whilst reducing human error and the number of safety incidents. Representing a new kind of safety thinking to meet contemporary challenges, the book covers four critical levels: the individual, the relational, the organisational and the societal. The approach can be successfully applied to the healthcare, road, rail, aviation and energy sectors for greater safety and performance. The emphasis on self-care, strengthening relationships and learning from positives signals a clear shift in safety management thinking. This is not just an insightful, analytical approach, but an action-based one ready for implementation. Few approaches in the field tackle the subjects of sleep, fatigue, distraction, smartphone addiction, workplace stress and mental health with the same vigour, or provide the safety toolkit for fighting a pandemic. If you want to create the right mindset to achieve exceptional results in these uncertain times, this book will show you how. It is aimed at professionals in the health and safety industry, as well as graduate students in human factors, ergonomics, industrial engineering and production engineering.
