...Associate Professor of Law and Public Health at HSPH professor, David M. Studdert said that “cognitive errors play a large role” in these types of medical errors. The study also recommended ways to improve the diagnostic process, suggesting that systems reducing reliance on doctor??s memory, such as electronic test result tracking systems, be implemented. Studdert also said that, in certain situations, physicians should consider consulting a specialist in a relevant field to assist with a diagnosis. While a patient’s wellness is primarily the doctor??s responsibility...
Rarely are students told, when they call Harvard University Health Services (UHS), “Sure, you can come in anytime. How about tomorrow at 9:00 a.m.?” Wherever you go, scheduling a doctor??s appointment is a difficult task but UHS’s high level of appointment cancellations and no-shows makes squeezing in a visit unnecessarily difficult. Last year, 12,000 of 180,000 UHS appointments were cancelled fewer than 24 hours ahead of time or missed altogether. These “dinkas” (short...
...well as a lecture series in bionanoscience, a relatively young but rapidly expanding field that examines life on the nano-scale. “Understanding life at the smallest levels could offer dramatic changes in both basic biology and, on a more mundane level, transform a trip to the doctor??s office,” according to the original planning documents for the institute. “The intersections among biology and engineering represent some of the most fruitful in basic and applied research.” The new institute will focus on basic, fundamental biology and nanotechnology...
...lazy summer schedule. There is only one scheduled shuttle, the Soldier’s Field loop, which runs during the morning and evening rush hours and even then, only every 30-40 minutes. There is also a daytime van service for mobility-impaired students, but it requires a doctor??s note. There is an evening van service, but it is by appointment only, and can take over a half-hour to show up. For all practical purposes, the summer schedule yields no regular service to Mather or the Quad. Yet there is one time when the shuttle...
...male compatriots. The current European standards of beauty would be a turn-off to even the loneliest of cavemen.Yet Europeans are much healthier than Americans. A continent of people whose diets are free of hydrogenated oils and whose primary means of locomotion is walking or bicycling is any American doctor??s utopia. So why promote an aesthetic that makes these healthy people look starving and infertile? Who decided it was attractive to look sickly? Part of me believes that Americans stand out in Europe because we look like we could pass a physical. Not that we choose...
