Working in partnership: Opportunities, Values, and Impact
No full textThis chapter reflects upon the value of working in partnership to challenge disability hate crime. As authors, we are writing this chapter from two distinct positions; one author is a manager at People First Merseyside and the other a disability hate crime researcher. Our own research partnership has encouraged us to consider the value of working in collaboration to be able to influence change at a range of local, regional and national levels. In this chapter, we share the values of practice that underpin People First Merseyside such as working in ways that enable empowerment, build confidence and change the balance of power relations. These values, we argue, help to create a peer-led, supportive environment which has been vital in helping to shape productive, multi-agency partnerships that harness the strength, knowledge and expertise of disabled people within the community. Drawing upon examples of local campaigns within the community, research collaboration, and the delivery of hate crime training, we hope to encourage others to think about future collaborations with user-led organisations
The use of intuition in homeopathic clinical decision making: an interpretative phenomenological study
No full textWhile intuition plays a role in clinical decision making within conventional medicine, little is understood about its use in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). The aim of this qualitative study was to investigate intuition from the perspective of homeopathic practitioners; its’ manifestation, how it was recognized, its origins and when it was used within daily clinical practice. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with clinically experienced non-National Health Service (NHS) UK homeopathic practitioners. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to analyze the data. Homeopaths reported many similarities with conventional medical practitioner regarding the nature, perceived origin and manifestation of their intuitions in clinical practice. Intuition was used in two key aspects of the consultation: (i) to enhance the practitioner–patient relationship, these were generally trusted; and (ii) intuitions relating to the prescribing decision. Homeopaths were cautious about these latter intuitions, testing any intuitive thoughts through deductive reasoning before accepting them. Their reluctance is not surprising given the consequences for patient care, but we propose this also reflects homeopaths’ sensitivity to the academic and medical mistrust of both homeopathy and intuition. This study is the first to explore the use of intuition in decision making in any form of complementary medicine. The similarities with conventional practitioners may provide confidence in validating intuition as a legitimate part of the decision making process for these specific practitioners. Further work is needed to elucidate if these findings reflect intuitive use in clinical practice of other CAM practitioners in both private and NHS (i.e. time limited) setting
