In this chapter Mark Britnell brings together his ideas for solving the global workforce shortage in healthcare. He argues for a total reimagination of how we conduct healthcare and construct healthcare systems to avoid the coming global workforce shortage in healthcare that will harm patients, citizens, and societies. He argues for a more innovative, concerted, and collaborative approach to policies and practice. This way productivity will improve in a key section of the economy and national wealth will increase, helping individual prosperity, families, communities, and social cohesion. He is careful to point out that solving the global workforce crisis in healthcare is a complex problem, but that it can be solved.

The Relationship

The central argument of this book is that over the next decade we are heading towards a global workforce shortage in healthcare that will harm patients, citizens, and societies. Knowing what we know, we cannot simply watch this happen; Mark Britnell believes it is possible to make good this gap by orchestrating our policies and practice in a more innovative, concerted, and collaborative way. In doing so, productivity will improve in a key section of the economy and national wealth will increase, helping individual prosperity, families, communities, and social cohesion. He looks at specific countries such as Japan, Brazil, and the Netherlands to illustrate how health systems can improve worldwide if we learn from each other. He argues for gender equality for healthcare workers, increased support for them, and more sophisticated thinking on the relationship between humans and technology.

Country Today

No country today manages its health workforce and workforce needs particularly well. Neither rich nor poor countries are prepared to tackle the problems facing their health workforce, even though many analyse and outline the coming shortages. Countries and organizations often try to spend their way out of problems with short-term fixes, causing more problems for others and, ultimately, themselves. We need practical examples of how to improve the situation to avoid the coming global workforce shortage in healthcare, which is why Mark Britnell wrote this book. This chapter introduces the theory behind the book, and provides an overview of the current situation.

Era pascakebenaran (post-truth) ditandai dengan pudarnya relevansi kebenaran dan verifikasi fakta digantikan dengan preferensi pribadi dan tarikan emosional. Dalam konteks pemilihan umum Indonesia pada tahun 2014 dan 2019, berbagai hoaks bernuansa SARA yang bermunculan mengancam kohesi sosial di bangsa ini. Dengan demikian, pascakebenaran tidak lagi sekadar menjadi isu di kalangan akademisi, tetapi juga dipertunjukkan secara masif di ruang publik. Bagaimana kaum injili menanggapi problematika pascakebenaran yang kompleks ini? Artikel ini mengusulkan sebuah model teologi yang integratif dalam menghadapi tantangan-tantangan di dunia pascakebenaran, yakni model Ortodoksi-Ortopraksi-Ortopati sebagai cara hidup kaum injili. Di akhir artikel ini, model berteologi ini diimplementasikan untuk menanggapi problematika post-truth yang berkembang dewasa ini di Indonesia. Abstract: The post-truth era is indicated by the eclipsing of the relevance of truth and fact verification replaced by personal preference and emotional appeal. In the context of Indonesia's national elections in 2014 and 2019, multitude of hoaxes emerged with respect to tribal affiliations, religion, race and societal groups and threatened social cohesion in this nation. Correspondingly, post-truth not merely an issue in the academia but also is massively demonstrated in the public sphere. How do the evangelicals respond to the complex problem of post-truth? This article proposes an integrative theological model in facing challenges in a post-truth world, namely the Orthodoxy-Orthopraxis-Ortopathy Model as the evangelicals' way of life. At the end of this article, this theological model implemented to respond post-truth problems that recently emerged in Indonesia.

Across the breadth of acquired neurogenic communication disorders, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) may go undetected, underreported, and untreated. In addition to stigma and distrust of healthcare systems, other barriers contribute to decreased identification, healthcare access, and service utilization for Hispanic and African American adults with MCI. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) have significant roles in prevention, education, management, and support of older adults, the population must susceptible to MCI.
