Professionalism in Medicine by Jill Thistlethwaite
Those at the grassroots of primary care have been provided with a unique opportunity to plan and shape the modern NHS. This book describes the work of primary care groups in their first months and describes everything from the initial aims of PCGs through to primary care trusts and the future. The excellent panel of contributors who are practised members of PCGs describe their experiences and the lessons they have learnt. The book explores how organisations will evolve and provides guidance on theory people and functions. It is essential reading for members of PCG teams and those with or aspiring to PCT status.
'Doctors' professionalism has come under challenge from all directionsAs medicine has had to redefine what it means by professionalism, medical education has had to dissect the components of this newly defined entity and consider how best to incorporate it into the curriculum and - a greater challenge - how to assess it in developmental and supportive ways. This book is both welcome and timely. It is an important addition to the field and will be of value to all those involved in medical and healthcare education, and to a wider audience interested in the development of those nascent professionals to whom we will be entrusting the future of medicine.' Sean Hilton in the Foreword 'A book that is well worth reading...can be read profitably by medical students, residents, practitioners of all specialties, and faculty in medical schools...4 Stars.'
