management's Tale "in" demand

Hay que reconocer que cuando los gestores de medio pelo hablan de la gestión demand, it is as if it was something very "in". The problem has happened to her is given by the possible errors and ignorance of the significance that may have the sound [in] as different ways of writing or as precede or Postpone.

The result of ignorance of what is demand management, has given rise to different attitudes depending on the part of manager, and as the wind blows. Of course in high places, the only management who claim to know (they say) is the management "in" autonomy and professional managers to look sort of care and allow maximum citizen satisfaction, without turning centers health in a "no vallao vineyard."

But many area directors, district, ZB and UGC (not all) missed the day they explained the delay EASP what is and what is management "in" in demand. The delay means that happens when a patient is slow to respond more than 24 hours after an appointment in primary care. It looks even saw many Sesame Street and do not distinguish small hours of minutes or seconds, so I have coined a new term, based on the commutative property (also missed math and do not know what it is), leading to a transposition of words, with such dire consequences as when it comes to large vessels: management rather than "in", transposed words and became in-demand management, ie "demand you eat it with potatoes and ketchup, for the coronary-clogging as soon as possible."

There is another type of manager they even have misspellings (we see that the language was not for him), and adopted a new style of management: management hin, that sounds just as well that first but ominous connotations.

And I leave you with a saying that has nothing to do with the input (the evil-minded believe that the photo and saying they do have to do):

"Whoever comes to mule del cielo le cae el arnés."

He estado buscando otro que dijera más o menos "el que nace gestor, desde arriba lo señala un dedo", pero lo del mulo es lo más parecido que he encontrado, aunque no tenga absolutamente nada que ver (Dios me libre).

Esperemos que algún día se decidan a convocar esas plazas por concurso oposición o al menos por concurso de méritos, en lugar de hacer un concurso de popularidad, quiero decir de impopularidad (la partícula im también hace de las suyas según donde se coloque).

Ni que decir tiene que esto no ocurre en ningún lugar. Es el borrador de un guión de una comedia que estoy preparando y para el que espero vuestras aportaciones.

The Structure Of A Complete Male

Service Commissions. As piss all over the world.


Imagine for a moment that we are about to solve a movement and an opposition. Suppose also that there is a public service job which basically serves to provide employment for those already working on it, it does not seem able to assume the daunting task undertaken by the employment exchanges in public companies. These job boards have between their work destabilize the template, ensuring that no one knows the name of your doctor (for change) and loves to make gasoline burn doctors and nurses, without allowing swaps. Of course, their criteria for hiring are opposed to reason and logic more basic. Thus, while the Andalusian Employment Service prioritizes work to find long-term unemployed, the stock premium for more work, to the despair of those who have never worked, the young and long-term unemployed.

mixed and stirred it all.

The other day I asked a colleague who thought I was going to happen in the second half of September when finally after only 3 years of resolution of the PEO 2007, before the avalanche of requests for service fees and the many changes than expected. I immediately thought of an easy solution: 1 .-

Ask all interns who have not obtained a place in the OPE, if they were willing to stay in the same place they occupy today.

2 .- Open a period prior to taking office to request service fees only to the term covered today.

3 .- Give all service fees will be claimed provided that the square were to take a temporary possession had to be willing to stay there.

Easy, simple, happy to professionals and prevents changes to medical users.

But that's what I think are going to do?

1 .- There will be some professionals who are not even incorporated into the square (and not so middle management Intermediate - bad language call them plugged in, but I do not -).

2 .- The majority will, quite pissed off, possession and move into the bag to temporary or casual.

3 .- The interim will be relocated by the bag trying pissed. 4 .-

patients (of the owners and the interim pissed) is pissed off because they are tired of changing doctors and the new comes pissed. 5 .-

start to provide service commissions (days before the inauguration of the impending move to convene -2012 calculation hopefully I-), although not to the quota they held before, not to lose all the anger purchased. The quota to arrive back goats.

And it will be pissed and distracted to keep patients and physicians most important problems they face.

This I have not invented it myself. Comes in the "manual of henpresas jestión Adhatoda puvlicas," which the author know, but I know that has been extensively reviewed from the point of view of non-sexist language.

to know that this is just a fable and any resemblance to reality is purely coincidental.

Is It Safe To Eat Potatoes Which Have

Conflict of interests and circumstances.


"I am myself and my circumstances"

José Ortega y Gasset

standard is now widespread, finding scientific publications in the declaration of conflict of interest. Everyone seems logical enough to quarantine the conclusions of a scientific study of a drug that is directly sponsored (financed directly by the research) or indirectly (the research is funded by the sponsor, although such funding is not directly devoted to research in progress) by a laboratory to which you are interested in selling the drug (we call this a direct conflict of interest) or otherwise to assume that competition for their own products (we call this an indirect conflict of interest .) However, not finish be usual to detail everything that could be considered a conflict of interest in this field. When making a declaration of interests, are generally exposed conflicts of interest directly, when it has received direct funding, being much more rare to declare other types of conflicts.

But it's not conflict of interest of what I write, but conflicts of circumstances. These are much more hidden and perhaps more momentous occasion. They are still conflicts in which the end is put into play an income that may not be monetary, but in one way or another can result in economic benefits: prestige that translates into more clients in private practice in contracts as a lecturer in higher sales for a book, and why not a greater number of visits on a blog that translate into higher advertising revenues.

But explain what I mean. Conflict of circumstances when personal circumstances (where you work, fitted with whom you work, number of patients served, help from other professionals, private practice, specialty or possesses and exercises could potentially exercise, family circumstances , political opinion or religious beliefs) could influence the findings of a study or in the statements made in public or what is written in an editorial of a scientific journal. Of course, there are conflicts of circumstances which are legally protected and not have to be declared (political leanings or religious beliefs), even if they miss.

a few examples:

Could be influenced a study on the advisability of circumcision to all newborns, the researchers religion they profess?

Could be influenced a study comparing public and private health systems on the political leanings of the authors?

Could be influenced a study on the healthcare professional to meet a condition, circunstancia fisiológica (embarazo) o una etapa vital (infancia, adolescencia, senectud), por la especialidad que se ejerce o se posee?

¿Podría estar influido un estudio sobre factores de riesgo que precisarán valoración por un médico, por el hecho de que los investigadores tuviesen ejercicio público o privado?

¿Podría estar influida una opinión en una editorial por el hecho de trabajar en atención primaria, secundaria o terciaria?

¿Importaría conocer el número de pacientes que atiende a diario? ¿Si dispone de enfermera? ¿Si tiene una reducción de jornada por liberación sindical o por asunción de otras tareas distintas the directory assistance? If you have an emergency service that attends to all patients not listed? If watchkeeping? The

or asked another way:

Should we take into account the conclusions of a group of cardiologists in private practice on the desirability of specialized cardiological evaluation of all patients before initiating ADHD drug therapy? What if at the time of signing or declare a conflict of interest only place they receive no assistance of any kind of drug lab?

Should we listen to someone who does not work in primary care on how best to organize care pediatric? What if the sign it is as though the primary care pediatrician is in a zone address without basic health care burden?

Should we listen to the gynecologist in private practice defending the need for monthly visits during pregnancy including ultrasound normal? What if he is a pediatrician in private practice who wish to extend childhood to age 21? Should we listen to a trade union cabinet released on private radiological signs of chest radiology in primary care? What if no one declares these circumstances?

Say, I'm quite curious and would like to learn more often the circumstances surrounding those who advocate a particular model of care, for care of a particular age group, by specific diagnostic technique for specific therapeutic technique and, unfortunately, I have an extreme tendency to think badly, perhaps because mixed in me suicidal (thinking is an act quasi-paraphrase autolytic Cioran, "every thought is a thought of more" * or more colloquially "thinking is losing" -) and perfectionists (I do not like mistakes and it forces me wrong thinking - "think wrong and you will succeed," says the English proverb-).

Hopefully whoever ends or say something that means more to others than himself, was aware of all the bad thoughts that unnecessarily causes ...

And now, is when I clear my conflicts of interest and my circumstances: I am ...


I'm a provocateur.

Flu and quiet: a virtual medical group with influenza A (2009-2010) Fanning the flame

In the spring and summer 2009, the news media on called influenza A were each passing day more frequent, alarming and overwhelming. The scenario he painted was almost gruesome and forecasts of health authorities suggested a pandemic that would reap the lives of many tens of thousands of people around the world.


However, in August 2009 and it could be presumed that the development of the pandemic in the autumn-winter would be like that took place during the winter the southern hemisphere (Argentina, Australia, Chile, New Zealand, Uruguay and other countries) and in the last month of spring in the northern hemisphere (Canada, USA. UU., Mexico and other countries). Both the epidemiological data published, as our perception in the day to day, were showing that the morbidity and mortality from influenza were even lower than the corresponding to a regular seasonal flu outbreak. This benign behavior contrasted sharply with the health authorities, the various contingency plans and correlative (different for each autonomous region) caused a significant impact on the organization of services and health care costs, apart from increasing public alarm. In fact, in primary care consultations perceive a state of increasing public concern. Examples such as consultations on voluntary abortion to prevent damage to the flu epidemic or young frightened by the apparent particular susceptibility of these to "new" virus, were not rare in medical clinics and nursing.

Moved by the turn events were acquired, several professionals in the English health system (general practitioners, pediatricians, pharmacists, family medicine residents, medical students and others) whose only common denominator was the editing blogs and web pages, we decided to take action on the matter and package it in order to find, analyze, develop and disseminate rigorous and accurate information on pandemic flu and the more cautious and scientific answer to it.


The movement began in mid-August 2009 and caught on with the name, logo and summary of "gripeycalma" for what was intended to put, to Influenza A, tranquility in the population and professionals. The work was carried out in a coordinated manner using new technologies of network communication, which is an innovative and perhaps unique in our country. As initial work product was spread in unison, on a day like today, in all blogs participating in the initiative, a statement in which he analyzed the epidemiological situation and proposed a series of advice for citizenship. Likewise, it created a blog ( Influenza A: first of all very quiet ) which served as a common platform of the movement, which were being made available to all new documents (organizational proposals, questions and answers), with translations into several languages \u200b\u200band in different formats (video, presentation, disclosure sheets, etc).


The echo of the initiative was immediate and intense. It added more blogs, both health professionals and general population interested in health, to nearly 200, and page of the group had, in just 3 months, some 80,000 visitors. And indeed, in practice it was possible to transmit the network through virtual communities, the message sought to influenza A, of calm and tranquility, serenity and rationality, both the population and the profession itself health. The impact was even the authorities, who moderated their response.

The end of the story can be written and are writing done after a birth year of the initiative. Influenza A had a peak of higher incidence in mid-November 2009 and has been a mild flu, with little impact on morbidity and mortality. The call for calm was because the scientific basis and little by little revealing that los escenarios apocalípticos no tenían razón de ser. Solo esperamos que la experiencia de esta pandemia sirva para mejorar y manejar, de forma más eficiente y ponderada, crisis futuras, evitando, en la medida de las posibilidades, caer en un consumo desmedido de recursos - que siempre implica dejar de atender otros problemas - y en una desproporcionada oleada de pánico colectivo.


Este texto cierra el primer episodio de la unión temporal de blogs y páginas de profesionales sanitarios y de otros relacionados con la salud en la Red. Muchas gracias a todos los que han colaborado de una u otra forma y a los que han visto y sentido a gripeycalma como lo que es: una iniciativa profesional que ha buscado go beyond our consultations and jobs. We just tried to bring a message of common sense and science both the public and health professionals to communicate our knowledge and understanding about a health problem, in this case to influenza A. Thanks to the work of many and the power they give us new information technologies, we can say that we succeeded.
