Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Human factors is a scientific discipline which examines the interactions between components of a system, whilst aspiring to improve system performance and human well-being. Paramedics are often the first on scene in emergency and urgent situations, and the quality of care that patients receive is dependent on the performance of the paramedic, often working alone or as part of a small team and frequently in challenging environments. This book is an accessible and informative guide to the concepts of human factors and ergonomics in the field of paramedic practice. It shows how an understanding and application of these principles can improve paramedic performance and well-being, and ultimately patient care. The system components of paramedic practice consist of the patient, the environment, the equipment, the paramedic and their team, the organisation they work in and the wider culture. This book brings together a range of specialist contributors to consider each of these components in detail through chapters which explore situational awareness, human-centred design, the well-being of the paramedic, systems thinking and safety culture among other topics. It aims to provide paramedics with practical advice and the knowledge of human factors that they need to make their first contact with a patient in need as safe and effective as possible for all involved. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

It has been written by a premier league team of human factors specialists and frontline experts who share their knowledge and experience of applying human factors science to paramedic practice."Rhona Flin, Professor of Industrial Psychology, Robert Gordon University, UK"This book will be essential reading for paramedics in all practice settings as it covers the key elements which will allow paramedics to better understand the complex sociotechnical realities of the care they provide to patients."Andy Collen, author of Decision Making in Paramedic PracticeThe system elements of paramedic practice are interconnected and complex. These elements can include the patient, the paramedic and their colleagues, the environment, the equipment, the tasks, and the processes and procedures of the organisation. Considering the socio-technical realities of care that paramedics provide are so complex, how can you best meet these challenges to support safe and effective practice as a clinician?Written as an introduction to the discipline of human factors, the authors highlight key principles and theories and relate these to aspects of paramedic practice. Containing practical prehospital examples, this resource provides a firm understanding of systems thinking and design, enabling you to look for instances where the principles of human factors might be applied in your own practice.
