The Hands-on Guide for House Officers
Although this book is aimed primarily at the final-year medical student about to begin his/her first house job, it will also prove invaluable to house officers already on the job. The book will provide finalists with real openings for action in their work so they can perform with confidence and ease. It aims to bridge the gap between the theoretical knowledge gained at medical school and the practical know-how of being a doctor on a daily basis. Reading this book should ameliorate the feeling of panic that invariably paralyse finalists as they begin their first house jobs.
