Guide du clinicien pour aborder l'obésité avec les patients
by Sandra ChristensenCet ouvrage pratique, traduit de l’anglais, offre des stratégies efficaces, applicables dans n’importe quel cadre de pratique, pour amorcer et entretenir une conversation constructive sur le poids avec un patient. Il est destiné aux praticiens, infirmiers de pratique avancée, assistants médicaux, médecins, qu’ils soient étudiants ou professionnels expérimentés, pour les aider à prendre en charge le suivi de l'obésité ou pour orienter leurs patients vers d'autres professionnels.Ce guide aborde les nombreux obstacles que les praticiens rencontrent lorsqu'ils abordent la question du poids et propose des stratégies pour les contourner et les surmonter. Il accompagne les cliniciens pas à pas dans l’acquisition des concepts et compétences nécessaires à mener une discussion qui conduira à améliorer la santé du patient. Chaque chapitre fournit des outils et informations sur la manière de faire habilement progresser une conversation, de façon respectueuse. Des cas cliniques réels fournissent des exemples de conversations courtes et concrètes qui intègrent ces outils dans la pratique clinique. De nombreux praticiens sont conscients de l'importance d'aborder la question du poids avec leurs patients, mais ne se sentent pas suffisamment préparés pour le faire. Beaucoup n’ont pas été formés à la question de l'obésité, ni à la meilleure manière d’en parler et n'ont que peu d'accès à la formation continue. Sans les connaissances et compétences nécessaires pour aborder une conversation constructive, beaucoup évitent le sujet, ce qui impacte négativement la santé des personnes souffrant d'obésité et de pré-obésité. Le suivi et le traitement de cette pathologie donnant de bons résultats, il est impératif que les praticiens soient capables d'aborder cette question en connaissance de cause et avec sensibilité. A ce titre, ce guide pratique comble cette lacune.
Guide pratique pour les coureurs débutants
by Chimène Elessa Atletismo ArjonaToute expérimentation suppose une nouveauté. Décider d’aller courir pour la première fois peut devenir la nouveauté la plus marquante de votre vie impliquant la première fois que vous portez des chaussures neuves ou alors une expérience que vous ne renouvellerez jamais. Ce qui peut faire la différence est l’hypothèse que le jour où vous vous êtes entraîné, ces chaussures vous ont gêné et ont attiré votre attention négativement à cause de la douleur terrible qu’elles ont occasionnée, ou si cette fois-là, au contraire, vous avez relevé brillamment votre défi avec elles. Tout comme les chaussures, marcher ne s’apprend pas dans un livre plein d’instructions. Vous apprenez, vous mémorisez et vous retenez pour toujours. Ensuite, vous osez courir ou on vous oblige à le faire. Il y a toujours une première fois pour tout et, dans de nombreux cas, il n’y a pas de manuel technique pour vous aider. C’est dans cet esprit qu’est né ce manuel qui empile les expériences que Juan Carlos Arjona a sélectionnées afin que votre première sortie avec des vêtements et des chaussures de sport devienne un souvenir durable. Ce manuel énumère les erreurs que vous pouvez éviter, les conseils que vous devez suivre, les recommandations que vous devez retenir et les astuces que vous devez garder en tête. Tout au long de ses 30 chapitres, il vous exposera ce qui vous sera le plus utile et ce qui est indispensable pour que vous évoluiez en tant que coureur. Juan Carlos Arjona connaît et comprend l’athlétisme. Il vous fera découvrir les éléments importants que vous devez maîtriser pour que ces derniers ne deviennent pas des points faibles comme l’irritation causée par les chaussures neuves. En tant qu’entraîneur, l’auteur connaît bien son métier et il vous conduira tout au long d’un guide direct et sincère. Il vous suffit d’avoir un objectif, une bonne raison de tout laisser de côté pour aller courir comme si c’ét

Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry Holsters
by Corey GraffCongratulations! You've completed your concealed weapons class and have your permit. Now you're ready to go to the local gun shop and pick out that one perfect pistol for self-defense. So far, so good. However, if you're like most folks, you didn't think much about how you'll actually carry the thing around. This can lead to an uncomfortable exchange with the bespectacled gun-counter guy. If your experience is anything like mine, he'll look down his nose at you while a little drop of white spittle forms at the corner of his mouth. You'll ask which holster he recommends. And he'll sneer.I've seen this scenario play itself out more times than an I Love Lucy rerun. Holster selection for concealed carry is quite possibly one of the most misunderstood and glossed over areas in the gun world. Like clothing, holsters are very personalized so you'll eventually wind up like everyone else who carries. First you'll have a dresser drawer full of them, then one day you'll wake up to the realization that a storage unit is needed to contain the rest. With the awesome responsibility of carrying a gun for self-defense comes the opportunity to prevail and survive an otherwise lethal confrontation. Yet that responsibility also becomes a life-changing event with the holster. In all its many interesting designs and variations it's the one thing allowing you to keep your personal safety tool by your side and close at hand at all times, no matter how you dress. I hope this little book serves as a guide to help you do just that.
