PHYSICIAN-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP

V One of the helpful not; of many physicians in the posting of little notices on the walla of their wait- ing rooms. These printed notices tell the patients about the time to have certain preventive injections made. how long it will be after contact with a disease before the early symptoms appear. and give other information. Sometimes the physicla.n's fees for office consul- tation, home visits. and special methods of treatment are posted up.

An editorial in The Journal of the American Medical Association is entitled "Physician-Patient Re- lationship." and states:

In the past few years one of the important public relations accom- plishments of the medical profess- ion has been the establishment of grievance committees. Physicians have come to realize that patients must have an outlet for their just complaints and that the profession must take the lead in ferreilng out doctors who refuse to abide by the Code of Ethics.”

Grievance committees in many communities have provided a lis- tening post for public relations problems when complaints over a period of time are mbiilatcd. Soon after these committees started in- vcstigating the grievances of pai- ienls, they found that the vast majority of grievances against their doctors was due to just one thing- misunderstanding.

Practically all grievances can be settled only in the doctor's office. Patients must be ('flC0lll':u:ed to talk over with thcir doctor any questions they niiglit lime regard- ing his services and foes. The fact that a patient. referred for an x- ray. does not own the x-ray, should be explained to him. The aims always belong to the x-ray spec- ialist as he needs thcni should other physicians or a law court re- quire his testimony.

Encouragement to talk over anything the patient does not understand can be given with a

simple public relations aid which the American Medical Association is making available as a service to its members. It is an attractive of- fice plaque which reads:

"To All My Patients,

I invite you to discuss frankly with me any questions regarding my services or my fees. The best medical service is based on a friendly mutual understanding be- tween doctor and patient."

This plaque can increase under- standing for every practising phy- sician. Given a prominent place on physicians desk or waiting room walls. it will show that America's doctors are sincerely interested in providing the best of medical ser- vice, the kind of service that comes only from friendly mutual under- standing.

The two Elizabeths share one thing. The first Elizabeth prided herself on being a "mere English- woman," by which she meant that she was virtually pure English in blood. Her mother.

A vicar received 3 visit from one of his parishioners. It was ob- vious that the man had something on his mind.

"Is it right for any person to profit by the mistakes of other people?" he asked.

"Most certainly not." replied the person.

The visitor brightened. "Very well, then," he said. "perhaps you'd like to return the five dollars I paid you for marrying me!”

"I've come to mend the tap you wrote about," said the plumber to the woman who answered the door.

The plumber turned to his boy. "Would you believe it, Bill? Fancy sending for us to a job and then moving!"
