Bibliography:
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
"New technologies are transforming
healthcare
work and changing how patients interact with
healthcare
providers. As artificial intelligence systems, robotics, and data analytics become more sophisticated, some clinical tasks will become obsolete and others will be reconfigured. While it is not possible to predict these developments precisely, it is important to understand their inevitability and to prepare for the changes that lie ahead. [This book] argues that
compassion
must be upheld as the bedrock and guiding purpose of
healthcare
work. Emerging technologies have the potential to subvert this purpose but also to enable and expand it, creating new conduits for compassionate
care
. Cultivating these benefits and guarding against potential threats will require vigilance and determination from
healthcare
providers, educators, leaders, patients, and advocates. The contributors to this book show the way forward, bringing a diverse range of expertise to confront these challenges. Avoiding platitudes and simple dichotomies, they examine what
compassion
in
healthcare
means and how it can be practised, now and in the uncertain future. [This book] is a call to action. Drawing together a decade of evidence and insight generated by a community of
leading
scholars and practitioners committed to promoting compassionate
care
, it offers steady principles and practices to steer the way through times of
technological
change."--From publisher.
