Running a clinic for seniors requires a lot more than simply providing medical care. In Stories from the Tenth-Floor Clinic, Marianna Crane chases out scam artists and abusive adult children, plans a funeral, signs her own name to social security checks, and butts heads with her staff—two spirited older women who are more well-intentioned than professional—even as she deals with a difficult situation at home, where the tempestuous relationship with her own mother is deteriorating further than ever before. Eventually, however, Crane maneuvers her mother out of her household and into an apartment of her own—but only after a power struggle and no small amount of guilt—and she finally begins to learn from her older staff and her patients how to juggle traditional health care with unconventional actions to meet the complex needs of a frail and underserved elderly population.

Nursing practice changed dramatically in the mid-1960s as experiments across the country demonstrated the effectiveness of nurses' expanded diagnostic and decision-making authority. The result was a new breed of nurse, the nurse practitioner. In A New Order of Things, Freund takes readers through that evolution. Beginning with a demonstration project at the University of North Carolina, leading to the emergence of an innovative nurse practitioner training program, the siting of rural clinics with nurse practitioners as the primary providers of health services, a consortium of nurse practitioner training programs spanning the state, and ultimately to a movement: a new order of advanced nursing practice and primary care service delivery. A New Order of Things is unique in that it documents a history with contemporary relevance, a case study illustrating how a major innovation was strategically engineered toward adoption at the organizational, health system, and state levels. Using multiple sources of historical records and 36 hours of interviews with leaders of the N.C. nurse practitioner movement, Freund illustrates how change leaders formed alliances in a politically nuanced process, thought ahead and of the present moment simultaneously, were adept at recognizing subtle clues and nimble enough to take advantage of opportune moments. This story is N.C.'s story, but it is far more than that. It is a story for any health professional striving to make change in health services and move an innovative idea into widespread adoption.

What was it like to survive an illegal abortion, come out as a lesbian, and train to become a doctor in the late 1960s and early ’70s—before Roe v. Wade, before Title IX, and in a largely homophobic nation? In this unflinching and riveting coming-of-age memoir, Patricia Grayhall battles sexism in a male-dominated profession. She plunges into a life that is never boring—and certainly never without passion. Tossed around in the rough seas of medical training, chronically exhausted and emotionally drained, Patricia chafes at the toxic masculinity of the culture of medicine—and yearns for the same care and support her male colleagues receive from their wives and girlfriends. Although the sexual revolution and women’s movement in 1970s Boston celebrate female eroticism, she finds few role models for moving beyond desire to sustain a healthy, long-term relationship with a woman. Can she find the love she seeks without jeopardizing her career? This book, named one of Kirkus Reviews’s Best 100 Indie Books of 2022, is the inspiring true story of how one woman navigates these stormy seas without signposts to reach her goals—often battered, but never broken.

Patients Beyond Borders,TM the best-selling consumer reference guide for medical tourism, is pleased to announce the release of FOCUS ON: Bumrungrad International Hospital, profiling the renowned Asian destination that has treated more international patients than any other. Located in the heart of Bangkok, Thailand, this award-winning healthcare campus boasts many of Thailand’s top doctors, including physicians trained at Johns Hopkins, the Cleveland Clinic, Stanford, MD Anderson, and the Mayo Clinic. Over 200 have been US board-certified. Established in 1980, Bumrungrad’s main facility now measures 1 million square feet and houses a 554-bed tertiary-care hospital, advanced imaging department, ISO-certified laboratory, clinical research center, and medical heliport. The hospital offers 30 specialty centers and has the resources and capacity to meet all patient needs on one campus, within days rather than weeks. During the past decade, more than 3 million patients from 190 countries have traveled to Bumrungrad for its combination of medical quality, efficiency, value, and Thai hospitality, making it one of the world’s most popular destinations for medical travelers. “With costs averaging 50–80% less than comparable treatments in the US and with a 90% satisfaction ranking in recent Gallup polls, it is easy to see why so many healthcare consumers are making the trek to Thailand,” says Josef Woodman, author of Patients Beyond Borders. “I have personally been a patient at Bumrungrad International, and the experience is comparable to the best healthcare and service to be found in North America or Europe.” Bumrungrad was the first hospital in Asia to receive Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation (in 2002) and was reaccredited in 2005 and 2008. International medical coordinators, multilingual customer service staff, airport reception services, and a variety of ethnic food options are among the innovations Bumrungrad offers the international patient. Patients Beyond Borders FOCUS ON: Bumrungrad International will provide healthcare consumers worldwide in-depth information on the hospital’s top specialties and doctors, achievements, accreditation, signature services, patient case studies, and travel information. “We are gratified to be partnering with Patients Beyond Borders to produce this new digital-format publication,” says Kenneth Mays, senior director of Hospital Marketing and Business Development for Bumrungrad International. “Patients Beyond Borders is the bible for medical travelers, so it’s only natural that we should collaborate on this important resource for international patients who want to make smart and informed healthcare decisions.” Produced by the research and editorial team of Patients Beyond Borders, the FOCUS ON: series features a 32-page, full-color digital brochure and eBook highlighting the world's leading, internationally accredited hospitals and specialty centers in a fully searchable, dynamic, consumer-friendly format. Published under the Patients Beyond Borders brand, the series offers healthcare consumers detailed information on specialties, procedures, costs, and travel planning from the most recognized, trusted information source in international medical travel. FOCUS ON: Bumrungrad International will be accessible from a variety of sources, including the Patients Beyond Borders website, Bumrungrad’s website, Kindle, GoogleEditions and other eBook readers, iPhone and other mobile devices, medical, business, and reference libraries worldwide, and all popular social networks.
