Introduction to library services for allied health personnel.

Experience with a non-credit course, given by the staff of the University of Western Ontario Health Sciences Library, within the framework of the University's Summer School and Extension Program, to allied health personnel is presented. The purpose of this course was to acquaint allied health personnel with the library and its services and how to use the services to the best advantage.

Malpractice and employment of allied health personnel.

Increased costs of malpractice insurance and physician fear of involvement in malpractice suits have been suggested as inhibiting greater employment and utilization of allied health personnel in physicians' offices, since physicians are liable for acts of negligence by their employees. However, data obtained from a survey conducted by the American Medical Association in 1971 suggest that malpractice insurance expenses vary within only a relatively narrow range with the number of allied health personnel employed by physicians. Thus, malpractice insurance expense per se is probably not a significant factor in influencing physicians' decisions to hire aides. On the other hand, nonpecuniary aspects of the malpractice situation may still be an important deterrent to greater employment of allied health personnel.

Allied health personnel's attitudes and perceptions of teamwork supporting children with developmental concerns.

This report describes the attitudes and perceptions of allied health personnel toward the efficacy and performance characteristics of school-based teams supporting children with developmental concerns. Sixty-three allied health personnel were asked to complete the Attitudes About Teamwork Survey, the Team Characteristics Survey, and the Team Process Perception Survey. Respondents held a generally positive attitude about teamwork. Respondents' beliefs about the efficacy of the team process were moderately associated with critical performance characteristics. Effect sizes associated with these data suggest that the results were not only statistically significant but also noteworthy. Respondents also provided their perspectives on the benefits, limitations, supports, and recommendations of teamwork. Results were consistent with both the general teamwork literature and that focused on allied health professions. The authors describe practical implications of the results and directions for further investigation on this topic.
