One of the main methods of communication within the health service is the written word, whether this is in the form of clinical notes, reports or letters. An increasing emphasis is being placed on improving and maintaining the quality of such communications. This means the written output of clinicians is under more rigorous scrutiny than ever before.
The first part of this book offers practical guidance in developing the effective writing skills required in everyday clinical practice. It will be useful for students learning about clinical documentation and for practitioners wishing to review their writing practices.
Training, teaching and continuing education are essential in the development of a skilled workforce in the health service. All clinicians are involved in this process, first as students then later as experienced clinicians mentoring or training others. The second part of this book addresses the various writing demands arising in such teaching and learning contexts. It covers topics as far-ranging as effective note-taking, preparing teaching materials and writing up research.
The final part of the book is dedicated to writing for publication. There are many opportunities for health professionals to place their written work in the public arena. Writing books and journal articles provides an opportunity for disseminating information, sharing best practice and stimulating debate. It contributes to the knowledge base of the profession and helps maintain the dynamic nature of the care process. Becoming a published author is also a great personal achievement, and this section offers advice on how, what and where to publish.
This book is intended for use by a variety of health care workers that includes therapists, health visitors, nurses and general practitioners.
