Thinking About Thinking: A Prescription for Healthcare Improvement

Autor Yang Chen, Myura Nagendran
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iul 2024
Why do some clinicians make better decisions than others?
Do all clinicians become better decision-makers over time?
Is decision-making in healthcare an independent and trainable skill?
This book is about the practice of medicine and the decision-making of the people we entrust with our care. While treatments, technologies and professional roles have evolved over the years, the essential act of decision-making has remained constant.
Through personal experience, research and feedback from colleagues across healthcare, the authors examine how metacognition – or thinking about thinking – can provide a toolkit with which to improve the decision-making of all healthcare professionals.
The rise of digital tools and AI-based clinical support systems makes this a critical time to grasp how human decision-makers operate and how to best harness the increasing volume of healthcare data available.
This is a thought-provoking read for professionals and curious minds alike, packed with ideas and practical advice about how to improve decision-making in healthcare and deliver better outcomes for patients.

‘Thinking About Thinking’ has been a crucial guide in enhancing my decision-making skills as a GP trainee to help navigate the complexities of healthcare.’ Dr Carol Chan, Academic GP Trainee, Imperial College London, UK
'As a trainee GP with a hospital background, I'm learning to be a primary care generalist; a specialism that defines itself on assessing clinical risk and
diagnostic probabilities. This is a book for anyone in healthcare who wants to understand how and why they make decisions.' Dr Claire Edwin, GP Registrar, UK
