Tue, 28 May 2013 18:24:19 +0100

Nationally recognized Integrative Physician, Dr. Kamau Kokayi (MD) has announced his latest launch of holistic medical services in the Prospect Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn. The practice is named My Health Matters. This esteemed doctor brings with him with a practice nexus of health practitioners within the New York Metropolitan community with highly developed skills in their respective disciplines.

Dr. K. Kokayi has earned his Medical degree from Yale University & is a College Scholar from Cornell University. He has been a family practitioner since 1985 but with a slightly different focus and emphasis in care. Dr Kokayi has amassed a skill set that sets him apart from your traditionally educated primary care physician. Dr Kokayi has done extensive training in Chinese medicine, Homoeopathy, Applied Kinesiology, Nutritional medicine and Energy medicine, much of which predates his medical degree! He is working in the offices of his Yale colleague & long time friend, Dr. Donald Moore.

"The doctor is happy with his recent move to Brooklyn community as the community is very close to his heart & is also near to his earlier offices in the Park Slope area. The good news is that Dr. Kokayi's unique style of medical practice & healing is once again available in a community-based setting", stated Dr. Kokayi's spokesperson.

"Working alongside his Yale colleague, Dr. Kokayi would also be able to check in on clients who require hospitalization given Dr. D. Moore's affiliation with Methodist Hospital", added the spokesperson from My Health Matters.

Dr Kokayi has stayed at the cutting edge of medicine also supervises (part time) a stem cell facility at the integrative health facility, Patients Medical (Manhattan).

At his Brooklyn clinic, Dr. Kokayi has mixed his multidisciplinary medical expertise to provide the patients with a unique visit experience in the clinic. While he addresses Western medical diagnostic classifications he steps back to evaluate a person's health dilemma within a larger practice model that takes into account body mechanics, bioenergetics, and the state of a person's "spirit" and consciousness.

"In coming to Dr Kokayi's office clients will probably experience Chinese pulse taking, Kinesiology, meridian tapping, a "probing" Homeopathic interview, Pranic healing, manipulative techniques, vitamin injections and pushes, and may leave with botanicals, nutritional supplements, homeopathic remedies, standard prescriptions as well as dietary instructions and energetic exercises, " the spokesperson added further.

‘PsychSentinel’ –The Best System for Electronic Clinical Risk Management and Assessment

Mon, 29 Apr 2013 06:51:53 +0100

Patients with mental illnesses pose a risk to themselves, professionals who care for them and also sometimes to the general public. Hospitals manage to the very best of their capability when it comes to taking care of these patients and also ensuring that there is accountability for their services. Clinical Risk Assessment is basically a systematic collection of information to determine, the degree of harm that a person is likely to cause (to him or others) in some point of time. This requires time, knowledge and communication amongst all the members involved in the process. This is not always possible in a complex world where, individual knowledge, experience and best practices are continuously updated and refined.

A hospital where patients are cared for by a rotating team of clinicians, nurses and a number of allied health professionals should ensure that everyone shares the same set of patient risk assessment and care plan. With this aim in mind Clinical Excellence has launched PsychSentinel, an easy to use web tool that helps with the appropriate assessment, treatment, supervision and clinical management of 'at risk' patients.

"PsychSentinel is a 'mental health software' that helps clinicians construct a comprehensive patient risk profile and risk management plan that covers the entire course of treatment, from entry to discharge, ensuring that the highest level of security and privacy is maintained" says, Mr.XXX of Clinical Excellence.

Care providers, with proper authorization can share the same set of patient risk, care and assessment plan online. This can also be formatted for printing, saving (in PDF or HTML format), and can be faxed and even emailed. Thus information is updated and shared among all levels of people involved in the process. It's not only the care givers, but also the patient who can be involved in the assessment process by completing the safety plan assessment form. Using PsychSentinel patients can directly respond to questions on their general mood or suicidal thoughts and hence is very helpful in suicide risk management.

"PsychSentinel was launched to help hospitals reduce the risk of medico legal liability in the care of high risk patients. The software offers advanced decision support techniques that are specially designed for mental health care professionals in Australia" adds, Mr.XXX.

"Our clinical mental health software's, are designed 'by clinicians for clinicians' and are a low cost alternative to paper based assessment and care practices. We also offer a complete service and support package including data entry, transcription, training, 24/7 phone and email support, hardware and hosting services" he adds.

Luc Partoune, Directeur général de SAB-Liege Airport

Sun, 28 Apr 2013 13:12:13 +0100

Au pays de Liège, il est aussi des gens heureux. La preuve avec le directeur général Luc Partoune à la tête de Liège Airport, une entreprise qui ne cesse d'engranger les succès. C'est que le bilan présenté en une quinzaine d'années est tout simplement exceptionnel. Avec une 10aines de milliers d'emplois nouveaux à la clef et la perspective de doubler ce chiffre à court terme.

De quoi vraiment avoir le sourire

L'une des vraies particularités de Liege Airport est d'avoir misé dés le départ sur le développement du fret (cargo). Il fut d'ailleurs le premier aéroport européen à avoir opéré ce choix stratégique. Un choix pour le moins gagnant puisque l'aéroport liégeois figure à la 7ème place européenne des aéroports de fret et à réussi à créer au total plus de 3.000 emplois dans une région qui en a bien besoin.

Tout n'est pas toujours rose

Le milieu de l'aéronautique belge est en ébullition ces derniers temps. L'organisme de contrôle Belgocontrol en déficit accuse les aéroports wallons d'en être en partie responsables. L'aéroport de Bruxelles voit Charleroi et ses 6 millions de passagers comme une menace et toutes les occasions sont bonnes pour l'attaquer. De son côté, Belgocontrol, actuellement en déficit, tente pour tous les moyens de faire porter le chapeau aux aeroports de Wallonie. Liège Airport récuse évidement l’implication et refuse d’être tenu repsonsable de la mauvaise gestion de Belgocontrol.

Le problème est que Belgocontrol est normalement là pour contrôler le trafic aérien et doit donc être indemnisé suivant un taux unitaire et des redevances d'atterrissage. Toutefois, l’accord de 1989 (régionalisation de la matière aéroportuaire), indique que les aéroports régionaux (à l’époque il n’existe que celui d’Oostende) ne doivent pas payer ces redevances… L’aéroport de Bruxelles, qui est au niveau fédéral, doit par contre payer… des remarques fusent donc une nouvelle fois vers la Wallonie. Dans un rapport envoyé au secrétaire d’État, Luc Partoune et José Happart pensent que le problème budgétaire de Belgocontrol est aussi une erreur de gestion, et de la décision, fédérale « de ne pas indexer, pendant plusieurs années, les redevances à Zaventem, pour venir en aide à Brussels Airlines. » Et que la Wallonie ne doit pas être pénalisée par l’amortissement d’« un bâtiment luxueux implanté en Flandre alors qu’auparavant situé à Bruxelles. ». Un autre débat Wallonie-Flandre-Bruxelles qui n’est pas prêt d’être résolu.

Ne vaudrait il mieux pas que le monde aéronautique belge se concerte et mette en place une stratégie de réflexion commune. Rappelons que les plus grands concurrents ne sont pas belges, il s'agit de Cologne, Luxembourg et Amsterdam. De nombreux points peuvent être améliorés. Par exemple, immatriculer un avion en Belgique prend plus ou moins 4 mois contre 15 jours en Autriche. Ou encore, les tarifs des organismes de contrôle pourraient être équilibrés à ceux de nos confrères européens.
