Our reception team may ask for an indication of the problem if a patient asks to be seen urgently. This is to ensure that the patient can be directed to the best service, which may not always be a doctor or nurse practitioner appointment. Appointments in the Acute Unit should only be used for urgent concerns and to discuss one issue. If the problem is not an urgent one, a routine appointment should be made.
Park Surgery has an Acute Assessment Unit staffed by a nurse practitioner and doctor.
Appointments can be booked with the nurse practitioner in the Acute Assessment Unit on a same day basis via the surgery appointment system. Home visits where appropriate may also be arranged via the practice co-ordinator.
For further information on the services provided by the nurse practitioner at park surgery, please see the leaflet available at reception.
The Practice Nurses provide a wide range of services including:
Please ask Treatment Room reception for appointment availability.
First vaccinations are given by the doctor at the baby's 6-9 week check. Appointments for subsequent vaccinations should be made with one of the practice nurses. You will be reminded when these are due.

Hello, I am the midwife for Park Surgery. My name is Julie Temple.
As you are now pregnant there are some decisions that you need to make at your first ante-natal appointment. You will have read the options regarding the maternity services that are local to you, which is provided in this pack.
For the majority of your pregnancy, it is hoped that your care will be provided by the Community Midwife and GP at the surgery. However, if during your pregnancy you or your baby have a medical problem, your care may need to be provided at the hospital of your choice.
If you wish such care to be in Horsham at the local hospital, then the hospital where you eventually have baby is East Surrey Hospital, Redhill.
Naturally, where you decide to have baby is your choice. When you see me at the surgery I will need to know where you wish to go, so that provision can be made for you to attend the hospital for the birth.
General Practitioner
Your GP makes the initial referral to the Consultant for a patient's ante natal care and then shares ante natal care with the Midwife. The patient is referred to the Consultant at the hospital where the patient chooses to have her baby. This hospital would normally be within the area, i.e. Princess Royal Hospital, Royal Sussex County Hospital or Worthing and Southlands Hospital.
The Midwife is responsible for the general well being of mothers and babies and their ante natal care, and post natal care for up to 28 days after birth. The Midwife informs patients of their options and places for delivery and books the patient for a hospital or home birth. The midwife will discuss ante natal care and advise on diet and smoking and arrange for you to attend parent craft classes.
The Consultant is responsible for advice and management of high risk pregnancies and for any patient who develops problems during the ante natal period, delivery and/or the post natal period.
Health Visitor
The Health Visitor will visit during the ante natal period if possible and then is responsible for care and advice for the child from birth to pre-school up to 5 years of age.
Social Worker
The Social Worker will be involved with families who need extra support and advice at what may be a difficult for them. Problems are flagged up by the Midwife, Health Visitor or GP and may range from general family aid to issues around child protection/abuse.
Ultra Sonographer
The Ultra Sonographer performs ultrasound scans which would routinely be a Nuchal scan at 12-13 weeks then another anomaly scan at 21 weeks. Scans can be performed at any time throughout the ante natal period to check for growth, dates etc. Any abnormalities detected are referred to either the local Consultant, GP and Midwife or to a London specialist if appropriate.

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.
There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below:
It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.
Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.

Park Surgery is located on the north side of Albion Way next to the Albion Way roundabout. Follow the directions for the Park Recreation Centre, which is adjacent to it. There is limited parking at the surgery, and it is often easier to park at one of the nearby multi-storey car parks. Our web site includes a map of the area.
Our aim is to provide cost effective, quality occupational medicine service to companies within the Horsham Area. Our involvement with companies can include:
An assessment of the occupational medicine needs of a company. A company doctor role to handle health reviews, pre-employment selection, hearing, skin and respiratory conservation/surveillance programmes. Other work related assessments (e.g. fork lift truck driver medicals, fitness to work assessments, sickness absence reviews). To keep abreast of changes in the production process and new guidance (including legislation from Europe and HSE), and apply it where necessary. To advise management on any other aspects of workplace medicine and medical practice generally.
At all times, our intention is to advise management in order to maintain and improve productivity in a safe environment.
An occupational medicine service obviously has to work closely with the Health and Safety Adviser employed by the company and sometimes with the HR Department. However, some details of the medical issues (e.g. pre-employment questionnaires) would remain confidential and not accessible by management. This is currently considered best practice and Dr. Dean and Dr Fisher are very aware of all the medico-legal and ethical aspects of an occupational medicine service.
Our occupational medicine service advises management on medical aspects related to the workplace and workforce. We would tailor a suitable programme specifically to the needs of the company.
When appropriate, Nurse led sessions for health surveillance or biological sampling can be arranged either on site or at Park Surgery.
Obviously the doctor and nurse would require a suitable room to be provided if consultations and examinations are performed on site. Usually the first aid room would suffice provided it has a couch. All necessary equipment for sessional work would be provided by Park Surgery.
All outcomes of our work, including pre-employment assessments, would be communicated to the company in writing by Dr. Rattan, and these need to be retained in the employee's file. These statements would not include confidential medical information.
Having a Company Doctor who is also a G.P. helps considerably when unforeseen problems arise, e.g. customers from overseas who are taken ill. In these cases, Dr Rattan and Park Surgery can provide a quick and efficient general medical service to resolve the problem.
Charges are usually made by invoicing for the actual work done, itemised for the time taken and charged at the hourly rate pro-rata.
This is for guidance - all charges are negotiable.
Reporting on pre-employment questionnaires
40.00 each
(If a report is required from the employee's GP, this cost would be additional to this fee)

How to Share iPads in School Education
iPads are inherently personal devices, so sharing iPads in an educational setting or other learning environment (between classrooms or classes for example) is difficult. iPads don't offer user logins or custom desktops for different users, so how can they be easily shared in schools?
Unfortunately, many schools share iPads between classes and students in much the same way they share laptop carts. Laptops can accommodate different user logins and therefore protect individual student data. iPads aren't laptops and can't be used the same way.
Most iPad apps cache your login information. In other words, once you've logged in, they automatically remember your login information and open your data when the app is opened again. The little love letter or risqué rap lyrics that Joey wrote will pop right up on the screen for the next user who opens the app.
A 1:1 environment is where every student gets his own dedicated iPad — and it's unquestionably the preferred model for school use. You'll have to overcome quite a few obstacles if you expect to share iPads between students. iPads just aren't built to be shared. Having said that, there are some considerations that make it a little easier and safer to share them:
Little kids, little problems; big kids, big problems. Sharing iPads at lower grade levels is far easier. There's less data produced, and the data tends to be less sensitive. In the upper grades, students may be writing papers and keeping notes that need to be kept private.
Stay faithful to your iPad. Number your iPads, and keep a list or spreadsheet to make sure students use the same iPad every time. At least that way, students' data should be available, and they're sharing that particular iPad only with a small handful of other students. Also, anything that goes wrong will be easier to track.
You can always sticker the outside of the iPad with a number, but another approach is to create a large visible graphic with the respective number and make it the wallpaper for each device's home page.
Skip e-mail. Forget setting up incoming e-mail in the iPad Mail app unless you're prepared to let students see each other's e-mail. Changing e-mail accounts in Mail requires going to Settings; that can get messy and time-consuming (although some schools do it that way).
Instead, access e-mail through the web browser. Many e-mail services, such as Google and Microsoft Exchange, have a web interface that you can access through Safari. Just make sure to log out when you're done.
Log out, log out, log out. Few apps prompt you to log out when you close them, but many have an option to log out on their Settings menus. Encourage students to always log out before closing an app or website that requires a login.
Appreciate the silver lining of a cloud account. Consider saving data to a cloud-based service such as Dropbox. There are simple ways to move content from the iPad to a cloud storage account. On a shared iPad, one practical approach is to use e-mail. For example, some web services, such as Evernote, accept files that are e-mailed to a unique e-mail address the service sets up for your account.
You'll still have to delete the files from the iPad, however, if you want to keep the information private.

ESQUIMALT, B.C. - A Canadian navy supply ship that was crippled by an engine room fire in February has returned to its home in Vancouver Island.
Navy Lt.Paul Pendergast says HMCS Protecteur docked at the naval base in Esquimalt, B.C. Saturday morning.
The ship was towed to port by an American tugboat.
Pendergast says the cause of the engine room fire is still under investigation adding it's unclear if the aging vessel will sail again.
Protecteur was scheduled to be retired next year.
The Feb. 27 blaze raged for 11 hours and left the Protecteur dead in the water for two days about 700 kilometres northeast of Hawaii.
Protecteur was towed to Pearl Harbor where it was prepared for its trip to Esquimalt.

At one point, baseball wasn't about big dollars and steroid rumors. It was groups of local guys in small towns meeting after work just for the heck of it.
Before long baseball got formalized -- umpires, uniforms, and rules caught on quickly.
If you're looking for a bit of that old-time baseball nostalgia -- we're talking pre-Babe-Ruth-old school-ball -- you should really check out the Newark (N.J.) Eureka and the Flemington (N.J.) Neshanok.
The vintage baseball clubs would be happy to come play ball at your next event. The teams are composed of normal, typically older, guys who just love to play -- and talk about -- baseball history.
They play the 1860's version of the game, which means players don't get to wear a glove (barehanded catches- OUCH!) and balls caught on one bounce count as an out. That said, the crowd is instructed to boo and call players "unmanly" when they catch a ball on the bounce.
The Memorial Day game in Newtown, Bucks County, the teams drew quite a crowd. Hundreds came out for good old-fashioned baseball, 25-cent hot dogs and plenty of Americana.
It might not be a trip to Citizens Bank Park, but it was certainly an enjoyable trip back through baseball history. And oh yeah, Brad Lidge didn't blow another save.

Obamacare: Because Mom said so
All those groups trying to get the "young, invincible" 20-somethings to sign up for Obamacare health insurance have identified a secret weapon.
Story Continued Below
Advocacy groups from "Moms Rising" to AARP are working to reach the healthy, young adults who don't think they need insurance — and their mothers who think they do. The groups plan to use everything from paid advertising — to guilt.
"We're going for the heartstrings," said Nicole Duritz, vice president of health and family education and outreach at AARP, which will be stepping up messaging later this summer as the Oct. 1 sign-up date nears.
( Also on POLITICO: McConnell to sports: Stay away from ACA)
Getting a critical mass of younger and healthier people to sign up along with older and sicker ones is critical to making the insurance markets work. The White House wants 7 million people enrolled in the exchanges by March, 2.7 million of them young adults.
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told reporters the messaging will include "creative ways" to reach out to young, healthy people who "may not get up every morning thinking about health insurance."
"We know that for instance — and I take this very personally — that moms can be influential with that demographic group," added Sebelius, who has two young adult sons of her own.
( QUIZ: Do you know Kathleen Sebelius?)
Breaking through isn't easy. Younger adults have a high rate of uninsurance, and some research shows they are less likely to sign up for coverage than older adults, even when it's subsidized by their job. They may not want to pony up for insurance when they're paying off college loans, saving for a car, setting up their first home — particularly if they don't expect to need coverage. Since the law was passed, people can stay on their parents' health plan until age 26. But the advocates want them to age into another form of insurance, not into being uncovered.
Everyone working on the mom angle rushes to say that they are reaching out to dads, too. But they cite evidence that mothers are the primary health care decision makers and medical appointment-makers in the family, from the Band-Aid on the first scraped knee right up through those early years of not-quite all grown up.
"Our research shows the No. 1 most-effective messenger is their mother," said Anne Filipic, a former Obama aide who is now president of Enroll America, a coalition working on public education and sign-up for the law. The group will reach out to moms in its campaign this summer and fall that includes volunteers going door-to-door in targeted communities.
( Also on POLITICO: How much will Obamacare cost?)
Other advocates pitching in on the enrollment drive, including Moms Rising, plan to use some paid media and lots of parent-focused blogging and social media. They also plan on injecting some insurance information into the mother-to-mother grapevine.
Young adults are also a prime focus of the anti-Obamacare messaging. The law's opponents are emphasizing its high costs, "premium shock" and government-mandated health benefits that may be more than some people, particularly in this age bracket, want or need.
"When young people are struggling with a stagnant economy and finding it difficult to get an initial step on the career ladder, it's asking a lot — even coming from a mother — to have a child pay $200, $300, even $500, for health insurance," said Chris Jacobs, a health policy analyst at The Heritage Foundation. The penalty for going without, he noted, is just $95 in the first year.

Deep Frying Food Recipes
Cauliflower Fritters (Gobi Pakora)
I still had a lot of cauliflower left after making a healthy chou fleur vinaigrette, so I finished the remaining head of cauliflower in a slightly less healthy way. These Indian cauliflower fritters take no time to prepare and no resting time is required. The batter is made from besan (garbanzo flour) mixed with lots of Indian spices. The rest really comes down to what vegetables are available in the refrigerator.
Pakora are my go-to snack food whenever we have last minute guests. Fried food is always a crowd pleaser in my house!

Deep Fried Feta Cheese Recipe
This weekend is the Super Bowl, but Lulu and his friends are so disappointed that the Niners didn't quite make it (and with Kyle Williams in particular) that they're threatening not to watch the game. Even though the boys are being such party poopers, I still plan on putting out a nice spread. As they say, the game must go on!
This particular dish is my take on the traditional fare of breaded mozzarella cheese sticks. Instead of mozzarella though, I made my fried treats with raw feta cheese. The cheese is from Redwood Hill Farms, and it is just delicious! It has such a strong flavor and really holds up well to being deep-fried. Unlike mozzarella, feta cheese doesn't melt but keeps a very pleasant firm texture.
To finish the plate, I drizzled a basil dressing on the appetizers for a contrast of color. For the party, I'll probably serve the fried feta cheese on a large tray, but you could also place a smaller portion as I did on a bed of diced vegetables.

Pumpkin Fritter Recipe
I've been feeding my husband Lulu very healthy food since the beginning of the year. I was thinking he couldn't take much anymore, so when he came home I decided to give him a reprieve of sorts. I had already steamed some pumpkin that I intended to add to a low cal, healthy canh (Vietnamese soup). As a treat, I took some of the extra diced pumpkin and created dumplings that I deep-fried.
My trick for making fluffy fritters is to replace the standard combination of ice water, flour and baking powder with just cold beer and flour. It gives a nice aroma to the appetizer and pairs well with pumpkin. I also garnished the dish with slices of fried chiles for color.

Pakora Curry (Dahi Besan Curry Recipe)
Pakora curry are fried dumplings made of a mixture of chickpea (besan) flour and spices soaked in a yogurt-based (dahi in Urdu) sauce. The dish is fairly easy to assemble.
It's one of my father-in-law's favorite dishes, and I was determined to learn how to make it. My husband Lulu's aunt, Sara, gave me the directions over the phone, so I was able to follow her step by step instructions. I served this curry with steamed basmati rice.

How to Make Mirchi Bhaji (Mirchi Pakora Recipe)
My father-in-law really loves spicy food, so I thought I would surprise him with stuffed mirchi pakora, which are whole green chile fritters. Before getting started, I had to estimate the level of spiciness of the chiles. It turned out the green chiles we bought from the Indian market this week were painfully spicy. So I made an incision in each chile and removed all the seeds.
The preparation method I learned from Lulu's grandmother involves stuffing the chiles with tamarind paste, then dipping them in (besan) chickpea batter before deep-frying them until golden brown.
I have to admit I didn't try any, but in my defense, even Lulu, Daddy and the girls found the peppers really spicy. Don't get me wrong; they really enjoyed them even though the girls ended up chugging milk to help offset the spiciness. I'm just saying, you've been warned!

The Accounting Historians Journal Vol. 11, No. 2 Fall 1984
Michael James Dailey THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY
Abstract: A model of change in twentieth century American accounting is presented. The model describes three-phase cycles, each consisting of a re-active, a proactive, and synthesis phase. The text and Appendix illustrate and attempt to validate the model, and to make projections for the future.
The development of accounting in twentieth century America, as well as of accounting generally, has been chronicled in several excellent texts, some listed in the attached Bibliography, notably: A History of Accounting Thought; Management Accounting: An Historical Perspective; and A History of Accounting in America. These texts utilize a chronological approach, and the intent of this article is to restate these chronologies in a framework which inter-prets them as a cyclical pattern. A model is proposed that divides a cycle of events into three phases. Each cycle is initiated by a reactive phase, progresses through a proactive phase, and termi-nates with a synthesis phase.
The term "reactive" describes the response of the accounting profession to strong, external, environmental forces at the begin-ning of each cycle. These environmental forces may be political, financial, managerial,1 social, technological, or cultural.2 They call for a response from the profession, which takes various institutional actions, issues regulations and rulings, and resolves conflicts. At this stage, responses are reactions to pressure rather than coher-ent, structured formulations.
"Proactive" describes the processes and procedures occurring within the accounting profession itself to bring order to the result-ing chaos. The proactive agents—professional accounting socie-ties, state licensing boards, educators, individual practitioners, and even college/university accreditation agencies—pose questions, seek answers, compromise, and finally innovate to systematically change accounting. The resulting decisions, procedures, guide-lines, etc. are the synthesis, which develops into the beginning

161-169 Essex Road,
2 people favorited this theater
Located in the north London inner-city district of Islington. The Carlton Cinema opened on 1st September 1930 with Harold Lloyd in "Welcome Danger". It was built as a cine-variety theatre for the Clavering and Rose circuit.
Architect George Coles excelled himself with this lavish building which has a magnificent Egyptian style facade dressed in multi-coloured Hathernware tiles. Inside the building the style changes to an Empire style with Egyptian touches in the foyer and then into the auditorium which is a delightful French Renaissance style. Seating was provided in stalls and balcony levels and there was a cafe for patrons. It was equipped with a Compton 3Manual/6Rank theatre organ that was opened by Phil French. Full stage facilities were included on the 26 feet deep stage and there were four dressing rooms.
The Carlton Cinema was taken over by Associated British Cinemas Ltd.(ABC) from February 1935. It was re-named ABC in 1962. It closed on 5th August 1972 with Reg Varney in "Mutiny on the Buses". The building was converted into a bingo hall which continued for almost 35 years as the Mecca Bingo Club, until closing in March 2007.
It was purchased by a church, and there are plans to create two small spaces beneath the circle, while the original circle and front stalls will be used for church services on Sundays. The church also plans to reopen as a cinema, using the circle seating area and converting the former cafe area into a second screen. Church use began in late-summer 2013.
It is a Grade II* Listed building.

on the pathe news website there is a short film of a stage show at the Carlton in the early 1930s…the film shows 7 grand pianos being played on stage and the camera pans around the auditorium.In the closing moments you see the original screen tabs and organ,marvelous stuff!

As of this date I am unable to open the www.britishpathe.com
Just checked the site Simon and it does work :)
The earlier Facebook link wasn't working for me, this one should:
Great pictures.
The venue is open as a church and conference venue
Could anyone confirm if the proscenium and auditorium ceiling have been altered or hidden, looking at some photographs it certainly was the case and being a listed building had to be restored?
michaelbrent; The auditorium is intact, but only the stalls area is currently being used by the church. The church have built a new 'proscenium' in front of the original one. This is a 'temporary' structure which can easily be removed. Also, as they are only using the stalls area, a false ceiling made of cloth has been hung across from the front underside of the circle towards the 'temporary' proscenium. This too can easily be removed when they bring the circle back into use. It will assist in retaining the heat in the stalls area during winter, and hides the upper levels of the cinema which are still painted in Mecca Bingo colours.
I am a new member…Very interested to see Davespring "Eight Piano Rhapsody". My father, now long deceased, was the head projectionist at the theatre during the time it was filmed and recorded. My father was a friend of Phil Finch who regularly used to play the piano at the Carlton and in between breaks they used to play table tennis on the stage. My mother was the cashier.
I have an original 78rpm recording made at the Carlton made in 1934/5 of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue on 8 piano ensemble. I have put it on YouTube (playing it on my lovely 78rpm machine…in my dressing gown!!)

BottleRock Countdown: Café Tacvba
From inside the dark, dingy dives of century-old buildings to the roof-top pool bars of boutique hotels, Mexican rockers Café Tacvba are played at least once every hour, of every day, somewhere in Mexico City. They are by far one of the most prolific bands of the "Spanish Rock" movement of the 1990's. And with the same original members since starting in 1989, their sound is perfected experimental rock. If that makes any sense.
Five years after the release of their last album Sino, which won two Grammys for Latin song of the year, the band just came out with El Objeto Antes Llamado Disco (The Object Once Called An Album). The record is a pretty good look at the band's sound over the last decade, including their classic mix of alt-rock with ska, electronica, and varieties of indigenous folk music of the Americas – you can hear the entire album here.
The New York Times once called Cafe Tacvba "one of the most important bands in the hemisphere. A smart, cosmopolitan band with a broad streak of lighthearted surrealism."
Among many great tracks, one of their more famous songs is "Eres", but this video of "Olita de Altamar" (2013) shows the eccentricity and spirit you can probably expect on stage at BottleRock.

How to Register Your Kindle Paperwhite
If you bought your Kindle Paperwhite through Amazon, it's delivered to you already registered. However, if you bought the Kindle Paperwhite from a store (such as Target, Staples, or Best Buy) or received it as a gift, you need to register it.
If you need to register your device, you'll see the screen after you've set up Wi-Fi.
If you have an Amazon account, tap the Use an Existing Amazon Account option. Enter your Amazon account e-mail and password. (The Kindle Paperwhite inputs its own serial number, so you don't need to enter it.) Tap Submit.
If you don't have an Amazon account:
Tap Create a New Account.
Choose Country or Region from the menu that appears and then tap Continue.
Enter your full name, your e-mail address, and a password. Confirm the password and then tap Create Account.
Enter a payment method and billing address.
You need to set up a payment method for your account to purchase from the Kindle Store. The payment method can be a credit card or a gift card purchased from Amazon.
Tap Continue Setup.
If you have social networks associated with your Amazon account, you'll be asked to verify that you want to connect those to your Kindle. You'll also have an opportunity to set parental controls. You can do both activities later.
That's it! You can now buy books and other content from Amazon and have them delivered wirelessly to your Kindle Paperwhite. If you've purchased content while waiting for your Kindle Paperwhite to arrive, those e-books will appear on the Home screen after the wireless is turned on and the device registers itself.
After the registration process is complete a short tutorial will begin, showing you the basics of navigating the touchscreen. Don't worry if you forget some of the details they present.
When the tutorial finishes, you see the Home screen, which lists a welcome letter, the Kindle User's Guide, and two built-in dictionaries: the New Oxford American Dictionary and the Oxford Dictionary of English. Any content you have purchased will also be displayed.
If you ever need to de-register and then re-register your device, the following steps will guide you through the process.
Make sure the wireless is turned on.
Tap Menu->Settings→Registration.
When you tap Registration, if your Kindle Paperwhite is already registered, you will see a warning that you are about to deregister your Kindle Paperwhite. Tap Cancel to stop this process.
Choose to register using an existing Amazon account.
Enter your Amazon login credentials (your account e-mail and password), and tap Submit.

Surfed this place several times. Only breaks on a decent swell. Very few take-off points, so gets crowded/competitive. Main peak is tricky and usually breaks farther out than appears it will. It's really a local's spot (I'm fairly local and even I rarely ride here)... but if you insist, it's quite an intense paddle. If you're a beginner or out of shape, you'll just be an obstacle and won't get a wave. Go way down south of pismo pier and build up you muscles.

LA CA?ADA FLINTRIDGE (AP) — Two drivers involved in a Los Angeles-area car crash each suffered hundreds of bee stings after one of the vehicles hit a tree and disturbed a hive.
Los Angeles County Sheriff"s Sgt. Jose Larios says the collision occurred Sunday in suburban La Ca?ada Flintridge.
One of the drivers, a 51-year-old woman, jumped into a backyard swimming pool to escape the swarming insects.
The driver of the other car, a 17-year-old girl, fell to the street where a deputy found her covered in bees. He sprayed her with a fire extinguisher to get the swarm off of her and then they ran to safety.
Both drivers were treated at a hospital. The deputy was also stung, but not hospitalized.
The bee hive was removed by a pest control company.

'The World Is Flat' — Even In Health Care
These are not disparate events.
In the late 1980s — before almost a decade of double digit health care cost increases — many hospital administrators widely believed this country would become more "regionalized" in terms of care: Patients would head to East Coast health care institutions for specific heart or brain ailments, and west for other types of medical care. Those in the middle would be referring patients and providing more general practice services. The resulting attrition of revenue for the higher-paying procedures would certainly reduce income levels at the referring institutions. Increasing specialty practices would help balance the books.
And so every region of the country, and every health care institution, has become more competitive, and as they did, the cost of health care services has soared. A survey by Grand Rapids-based The Employers' Association and the Alliance for Health revealed area employers have paid increases amounting to 37 percent in just the last five years. Patients, however, began to find that health care was actually cheaper in foreign countries, where many physicians boasted curricula vitas highlighting educational backgrounds in the United States. Those patients reportedly found that recuperating was made more pleasant at seaside resorts. Some health care professionals may also prefer such settings.
If the "world is flat" in the health care industry, like manufacturing, is it a hypothetical leap to expect the (comparatively speaking) "assembly line" process of patient services to move offshore while the intellectual and inventive processes remain patented in America?
Spectrum Health and Saint Mary's Health Care are literally building on specialization, and Spectrum has been the king of the hill. Since every business is attuned to its market share, Hackley Health and Mercy General Health Partners find it necessary to merge operations, a move made more powerful by the $500 million regional health care system's proposed new owner/operator, Catholic health care conglomerate Trinity Health.
This region's fast-advancing expertise in life sciences becomes a piece of the intellectual property necessary as capital; its ability to attract highly specialized physicians, teachers, researchers and scientists is as important as those who travel in and out of the metro area, finding acceptable accommodations at the JW.
What becomes explicitly important in this region is the pattern of partnerships that have continued to provide the economic fuel for the area economy. In this issue, the story of Kent Health Plan depicts health care issues in general, but especially the manner in which community business leaders embrace and solve problems. President Lynda Zeller refers to the numerous, competing health agencies to which her board members belong: "They give and give and give to Kent Health Plan to try to make this system work. You would not know that they are as highly and intensely competitive as they are in the real world in that board room."
Such partnerships will be required against this backdrop of dramatic change. HQX

Nearly two-thirds of Americans say sexual harassment is a problem in this country, and about a quarter of women report having been harassed at work, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
The wide concern may help explain slipping ratings for Republican presidential contender Herman Cain, who is fighting allegations that he made unwanted sexual advances when he ran the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s.
By a ratio of more than 2 to 1, women who say they were harassed at work have unfavorable views of Cain. By an even larger margin — nearly 3 to 1 — they say they are apt to believe Cain's accusers rather than the businessman.
Cain's plea that he's being falsely targeted hits on a fear for many men: In the poll, 25 percent of men say they worry about being unfairly accused of sexually harassing someone. About 10 percent of men said they may have at one time done something, even inadvertently, that a colleague may have considered an unwanted sexual advance. But men today are far less apt than they were in 1994 to say they may have acted inappropriately, even if unintentionally. This decline parallels a slip in concern about workplace harassment since the early 1990s.
Reports of harassment have decreased over time, with fewer women younger than 50 now saying it has happened to them.
Overall, about one in six Americans say they have been sexually harassed at work, including 24 percent of women and 9 percent of men.
The percentage of women saying they have been sexually harassed has fallen from 32 percent in a 1994 ABC News poll, a shift driven almost entirely by younger and more highly educated women.
Seventeen years ago, nearly four in 10 women ages 18 to 49 said they had been sexually harassed at some point. Now, one in four say so. Similarly, 25 percent of college-educated women in the new survey report experiencing harassment, compared with 42 percent in 1994.
There has been a corresponding dip in the number of men younger than 50 expressing concern about being falsely accused and a big drop in the number who think they may have harassed unintentionally. Only 7 percent of men younger than 50 report acting in a potentially inappropriate way, down from 27 percent in 1994.
One number that has tilted in the opposite direction since the 1994 survey is the percentage of people experiencing harassment who say they reported it to their employers.
Still, nearly six in 10 women who said they have been harassed at work said they never reported it. Asked why, 29 percent said they didn't think it was sufficiently important, 22 percent said they were concerned about the consequences and 19 percent said they didn't think it would do any good. About three in 10 said it was something else.

Frozen food sales hit by scandal
Frozen burger sales are down by 43% and frozen ready meals by 13% in the wake of the horse meat contamination scandal despite consumers suggesting they would be happy to eat the product in future, new figures suggest.
Two polls have found a significant number of consumers would be happy to eat horse meat providing it was "safe" and properly labelled.
Figures from Kantar Worldpanel for the 12 weeks to February 17 reveal how consumers responded to the scandal which broke on January 16, showing that they changed the products they buy rather than where they shop.
Kantar Worldpanel director Edward Garner said: "The issue has so far only affected the performance of individual markets rather than where consumers are choosing to shop. For the four weeks ending February 17, frozen burger sales were down by 43% and frozen ready meals declined by 13%, clearly demonstrating a change in shopping habits.
"Tesco's share has come under pressure this period with a drop from 30.1% a year ago to 29.7% now. It might seem natural to attribute this decline to the horse meat contamination, however Tesco undertook heavy promotions this time last year, where consumers received a £5 voucher when they spent £40, and not repeating this offer will have adversely affected its share."
He added: "Waitrose and Aldi deliver all-time record shares this period of 4.8% and 3.3% respectively indicating that market polarisation and the 'two nations' consumer climate continues. Iceland records 10.1% growth confirming that the frozen food category as a whole remains robust."
The figures come as two polls suggest a significant number of UK consumers would be happy to eat safe and properly labelled horse meat.
A survey of almost 14,000 MoneySavingExpert.com users who are meat-eaters found 51% would buy horse meat as long as they knew it was bred for eating and was therefore safe. Of those who said they would eat horse meat, 29% said it would need to be cheaper than beef. However, 48% said they would refuse horse meat outright, even it if was free.
A separate survey by Ipsos Mori found consumers aged 45 to 54 are the most likely to be willing horse meat consumers (38%), while those aged 16 to 24 are the least likely (21%). It revealed 33% of Britons expect to buy fewer ready meals in future and 18% will choose fewer Findus products in particular, with 43% saying they considered the company's response to the crisis to be "poor".
However they are slightly less critical of other food brands affected by the scandal, with 35% rating Tesco's response as poor and 34% disapproving of Aldi's reaction, while 12% said they planned to reduce their spending at Tesco. The majority (59%) said the Government should do more to regulate food safety.

Artist Dominique Rey to Speak at the WAG as Arts Ambassador
Local artist Dominique Rey will be speaking at the Winnipeg Art Gallery at 7pm on Thursday, March 10. As the Cultural Capital of Canada for 2010, Winnipeg is enjoying a stimulating year of arts events organized by the Winnipeg Arts Council under the Cultural Capital theme of Arts for All. Five Arts Ambassadors have been designated to create legacy projects, each representing a different artistic discipline. Rey is the Visual Arts Ambassador. Her talk is included with Gallery admission.
Dominique Rey graduated from the University of Manitoba with a B.F.A., Honors, in painting. She has an M.F.A. in New Media from the Transart Institute at Donau University Krems, in Berlin. Her work has appeared in group and solo exhibitions across Canada, including the WAG exhibition She Works Hard in 2009. She is the recipient of several Manitoba Arts Council and Winnipeg Arts Council awards.
Rey's legacy project as Arts Ambassador is DO LESS, SLOWLY, a series of billboards throughout the city, encouraging Winnipeggers to do less and do it slower. "My project is an action, invitation and call that was conceived as a way for people to experience the benefits of slowness firsthand, and to act as a catalyst for integrating this practice in people's everyday life," says Rey. "The Slow Movement has become a worldwide phenomenon. From food production to food consumption, to health, sex, work, leisure, education, transportation, childrearing, urban planning, and the environment, the radical idea of slowness is transforming cities everywhere."
