Antimicrobial Stewardship in Non-Traditional Settings A Practical Guide


Free Download Antimicrobial Stewardship in Non-Traditional Settings: A Practical Guide by Shira Doron, Maureen Campion
English | March 2, 2023 | ISBN: 3031217098 | 228 pages | MOBI | 3.60 Mb
The evolution of Antimicrobial Resistance is outpacing the ability to create novel antibiotics, which is proving to be a global problem in the fact of climate change, population growth, demographic shifts toward aging populations, emerging infections, and other crises. Therefore, clinicians are forced to use the existing antimicrobials more responsibly to preserve their longevity for generations to come. In a parallel vein, there has been a recent regulatory acknowledgement of the importance of prudent antimicrobial prescribing, mandating the implementation of Antimicrobial Stewardship across all healthcare settings. This is harder to manage in a non-traditional setting, which include long-term care facilities, outpatient care clinics, urgent care centers, and others. Given the trends in patient care in these settings―particularly where the aging community is concerned―this is proving to be a growing problem. This is troublesome even for spaces that have university and large hospital affiliations.

Multimodality across Communicative Settings, Discourse Domains and Genres


Free Download Belinda Crawford Camiciottoli Veronica Bonsignori, "Multimodality across Communicative Settings, Discourse Domains and Genres"
English | ISBN: 1443811076 | 2016 | 285 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This volume focuses on multimodality in various communicative settings, with special attention to how non-verbal elements reinforce and add meaning to verbal expressions. The first part of the book explores issues related to the use of multimodal resources in educational interactions and English language classroom teaching, also involving learners with disabilities. The second part, on the other hand, investigates multimodality as a key component of communication that takes place in different specialized domains and genres. The book reflects a variety of methodological approaches that are grounded in both quantitative and qualitative techniques. These include multimodal discourse analysis, multimodal transcription, and multimodal annotation software capable of representing the interplay of different semiotic modes, such as speech, intonation, direction of gaze, facial expressions, gestures and spatial positioning of interlocutors. The research collected here highlights the increasingly important role of multimodality in communication across different genres and communicative contexts, and offers new perspectives on how to exploit multimodal resources to enhance the learning of English for both general and specific purposes.
