ATTENDANCE LEVELS

PRIMARY CARE: Primary care isthe first level of health care.


Healthcenters are the first place to go when you have a health problem.
The primary care team at each health center is made up of qualified medical and nursing staff, who must become a reference for the health of each user.
Primary care is organized on aterritorial basis in order to bring the service closer to the users.

SPECIALIZED CARE: Provided in specialty centers and hospitals, on an outpatient or inpatient basis.

There are different ways to classify hospitals:

According to Financing: Public and Private Hospitals

According to type of patient and distance: acute or short-stay, chronic or medium and long-stay hospitals.

According to their function: General hospitals (simultaneously attend patients of different specialties), Special hospitals (for medical, surgical or medical-
surgical specialties).

Each territorial area has a hospital assigned to it, which allows for better coordination and a more detailed knowledge of the needs of the environment.

EMERGENCY CARE: Emergency care is not limited exclusively to hospital care; users have at their disposal -located in some health centers- the Primary Care
Emergency Service (SUAP). On the other hand, the061 emergency service offers telephone assistance, which allows the initial and immediate evaluation of
cases and the coordination of the means to be used.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

Law 26150. National Program of Integral Sexual Education, sanctioned on October 4, 2006 and promulgated on October 23, 2006.

October marks the 14th anniversary of the enactment of Law 26.150, which created the National Comprehensive Sex Education Program (ESI). The process
began in 2004 in CABA when the legislature debated a bill presented by then legislators Diego Kravetz, Ana Maria Suppa and Florencia Polimeni. The Catholic
Church, the anti-rights sectors and their representatives in the legislature, such as Santiago de Estrada, deployed endless strategies to stop the sanction:
debates in the media, newspaper editorials, mobilizations, all of which made the treatment and subsequent rejection of the bill tense.
A significant political and cultural fact arose with the incorporation of Comprehensive Sexual Education in the educational policy guidelines. This important
social fact led to the adoption by the State of a policy aimed at promoting education for responsible sexuality from a gender perspective, also including
aspects of sexual diversity. It also aims at the prevention of health problems, particularly sexual and reproductive health, recognizing students as subjects of
rights.
The ESI seeks to guarantee the right of students throughout the educational system to receive "comprehensive sexual education in public, state-run and
private educational establishments" in all jurisdictions.

Description of the activity:

Conduct a research paper on the evolution of different types of oxygenation material. You will need to emphasize the following sections:

1. Origin of the oxygenation material.


2. Evolution.
3. Definition of the most outstanding.
4. Current status of the material.
5. List of the most commonly used materials (stating advantages, disadvantages and characteristics).

Student's answer: include your practice here so that the course tutor can evaluate it.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

Origin of the oxygenation material: Oxygen therapy has been used effectively for more than half a century in patients with respiratory failure. Even the
central significance of oxygen as an energy supplier to the cells was recognized as early as the 18th century, but due to a lack of technical possibilities it
could not be applied to therapeutically usable areas. Its antecedents date back to the time of the Swiss alchemist, physician and astrologer known as
Paracelsus, who suspected that the air contained a life-giving substance.

Evolution: Between the years 1771 and 1777 began the experiments of the scientist Joseph Priestley, who unveiled nearly a dozen new gases, among them,
most importantly the discovery of oxygen. Laurent Lavoisier in 1784, together with Seguin, conducted studies with face masks to measure oxygen
consumption at rest and during exercise. That same year, two cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were cured by oxygen inhalation. Between the 1920s and
1960s, the physician Alvan Barach, one of the pioneers of respiratory therapy, perfected oxygen delivery systems and designed various types of face masks,

25
as well as specifying the indications. In 1944, Alvan Barach treated some patients with emphysema with oxygen. Home oxygen therapy appeared in 1970
when Neff and Petty published their first papers.

Regulator: Device that reduces the pressure from the oxygen source to the oxygen supply and at the same time regulates the oxygen flow rate.

Flowmeter: Instrument used to measure the linear, nonlinear, mass or volumetric flow rate of a liquid or gas.

Humidifier: Provides humidity to the medical oxygen used in non-invasive respiratory therapy.

Nebulizer: Used for the administration of liquid asthma medications. When they come into contact with a flow of oxygen or air, they are transformed into an
aerosol.

Mask: Product indicated for oxygen treatments which are placed on the patient's face covering his mouth and nose in order to transmit oxygen, being
adaptable to the shape of the face and comfortable in use.

Oxygen cylinder: Dioxygen storage container, either under pressure in gas cylinders or as liquid oxygen in cryogenic storage tanks.

Pulse oximeter: Fingertip device that indicates the level of oxygen saturation in the blood.

Adapter nipple: Allows the union of flexible connections of the same diameter.

STUDENT'S ANSWER: INCLUDE YOUR INTERNSHIP HERE SO THAT THE COURSE TUTOR CAN EVALUATE IT.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

The Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a software designed to control and manage all the day-to-day operations of a warehouse. Among the
functions are to control the locations of the products in the warehouse, to significantly improve the work of the warehouse operators, as well as the
movements of the machinery used in the warehouse, and to optimize the space used for storage.

In order to correctly manage a conventional type of sanitary material warehouse with WMS, the first thing to do is to train the personnel in charge to be
able to use the software correctly, since the management will depend on this. Inputs and outputs will be controlled according to their level of rotation and
flow.

According to the zones, the number of floors, installation plans and their elements must be defined and specified, as well as the materials and machinery

Corrective action: Action taken to combat the causes of a nonconformity or situation that causes inconveniences in a management system.

Preventive action: Action taken to combat the causes of a situation that would cause inconveniences in a management system, before it occurs.

Accreditation: Authorization necessary to carry out an activity, mainly when an organization makes use of its authority and formally recognizes that another
is competent to carry out certain activities.

Quality assurance: Verification of the quality of all parameters and resources that influence the manufacture of a product.

Quality: Fulfillment of the requirements demanded by the client either of a product or service.

Certification: Procedure by which an organization assures in writing that a product, process or service is in conformity, i.e. fully complies with the
requirements of a standard.

47
Look up the concepts of standardized work protocol, quality control and quality assessment and make a definition of all in which data such as when they
started to be used and why are present.

The written and approved procedures that specifically describe the activities to be carried out in an activity are called Standard Operating Procedures. These
procedures are therefore used to evaluate and accredit the quality of the work and services provided.

With the entry into force of Royal Decree 175/2001, of February 23, 2001, approving the rules for the correct preparation and quality control of master
formulas and officinal preparations, it is necessary for pharmacies and pharmaceutical services that prepare master formulas and/or officinal preparations to
implement a quality assurance system. To this end, the pharmacist must develop Standard Operating Procedures that guarantee the quality of the final
product, which is the main objective of the aforementioned Royal Decree.

The Spanish Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices, with the conviction of offering the pharmacist who prepares medicines strict and faithfully
reproducible procedural guidelines, introduces four groups of Standard Operating Procedures in the National Formulary:

-General procedures.

-Pharmaceutical forms elaboration procedure.

-Pharmaceutical operations procedures.

The legal framework of the Central Quality Assurance Commission (CCGC) is formulated in Royal Decree 521/1987 of April 15, 1987, which approves the
Regulations on the Structure, Organization and Operation of Hospitals managed by the National Health Institute. Article 22 regulates the functions and
composition of the Commission and establishes which Clinical Commissions must be constituted, as a minimum, in each center.

The Central Commission for Quality Assurance is the technical body that prepares and works in the areas of Quality of Care and Technological Adequacy, as
a permanent advisory body to the Medical Management and the Technical Assistance Board.

The composition of the Central Quality Assurance Commission shall be:

-The Medical Director. -The Assistant Directors of the Medical and Nursing Divisions.

The Central Quality Assurance Commission shall meet a minimum of six times a year.

The most popular Clinical Commission for its achievements in Europe

La Paz University Hospital

At the initiative of the hospital's Medical Management, the proposal to create this new clinical committee was presented to the center's Technical
Assistance Board (JTA), with the aim of integrating a large number of care and management activities aimed at the proper management of pain in the
hospital. Given that these actions came from the medical, nursing and management areas, the TAB considered that the necessary characteristics were met
to approve the proposal and in June 2009 this approval was reflected in the minutes. In October 2009, the "Hospital without Pain" Commission was formally
established.

THE DRY

It is a multidisciplinary scientific society whose mission is to foster and promote the continuous improvement of healthcare quality in the healthcare field.
SECA was founded in 1984 by a group of professionals who were pioneers in this discipline, since they introduced it in our country. Since then, it has
organized an annual congress on quality of care, which has become a national and international reference in Spanish-speaking countries.

Infant mortality rate: Refers to deaths occurring before the first year of life.

4. Cancer incidence: It is defined on the basis of the new cases diagnosed in a given period and in a specific population.

5. Percentage of newborns with low birth weight: It is an indicator of the quality of health services, and has prognostic value in neonatal and infant mobility
and mortality.

6. Prevalence of tobacco use: Study of the prevalence of tobacco use and the number of cigarettes smoked in the general population.

7. Victims of traffic accidents: Statistical data and reports on traffic accidents, vehicle fleet indicators (registrations, change of ownership, cancellations, etc.),
driver census and data on complaints and income are collected.

8. Occupational disease rates: This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of occupational accidents that occurred in a given period (numerator) by
the average annual number of dependent workers in the same period (denominator).

52
9. Birth rate: The quotient between the number of births occurring during a given period, generally a calendar year, and the average population of the
period.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

1. Interpret and follow protocols: All our actions must comply with protocols and standards to ensure the quality of the service.

2. Work scheduling: Scheduling will be very important when a vehicle is assigned a service, the health technicians will have all the necessary resources
ready. This will make it easier for us to comply with protocols and procedures and thus improve patient care.

3. Organization and management of materials and resources: Materials and resources must be managed and optimized in the service, but without having a
negative impact on the final quality. As far as possible, the use of computer applications and devices will also be implemented to facilitate the work of the
technicians during the performance.

It seems to me that the quality control system plays a very important role, since it not only achieves patient satisfaction, but also improves their quality of
life, extends it and, in many cases, prevents them from getting sick or dying.

2. Describes criminal, civil and administrative liability.

Student's answer: include your practice here so that the course tutor can evaluate it.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

1. Moral responsibility is one in which responsibility is taken for a specific event or person, placing morality above others. What is legally implied is a
reparation consisting of a monetary indemnity to be paid by the person responsible for the act as moral reparation. Moral responsibility occupies an
increasingly important place in public opinion when the adjudication of legal responsibility through the courts is insufficient to close cases such as, for
example, corruption scandals linked to the concealment of figures in company accounts.

Criminal liability: It is the legal consequence derived from the commission of a fact typified in a criminal law by a subject and provided that such fact is
contrary to the legal order, i.e., it is unlawful; in addition to being punishable.

Civil liability: This is the obligation to compensate arising as a consequence of the damage caused by a breach of contract or to repair the damage caused to
another with whom there was no prior relationship (non-contractual liability), either in nature or by a monetary equivalent, usually through the payment of
damages.

-Administrative litigation: It is the one destined to the knowledge and application of the law in the administrative order or administrative law, that is to say,
the one referring to the normative set destined to the regulation of the activity of the public administration in its contentious version or of the control of the

her abdomen, fever and general weakness. On July 2, 2012 Esperancita was admitted to this same hospital, where she underwent laboratory tests and
exploratory examinations. Esperancita was hospitalized and the mother was told that her daughter was 7.5 weeks pregnant, but was not informed that she
had been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, even though this information was on the admission order.

As soon as Esperancita was admitted to the hospital, and throughout her stay there, she received blood transfusions with the intention of improving her
hematological status.

 What steps should a patient take to exercise his or her rights in the event of a surgical intervention with a harmful outcome for him or her?

Student's answer: include your practice here so that the course tutor can evaluate it.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

To list the fundamental rights and duties that every patient should be aware of.

Rights:

-To the assistance information.

-To decide about health.

-To privacy.

-To the clinical history.

-To receive comprehensive health care.

63
Duties:

-Provide the actual data on their health status.

-Respect the health personnel of the centers, services and establishments, as well as other patients, their relatives and companions.

-Proper use of sanitary facilities and services, according to the general rules of use established by each center.

The patient has the duty to sign the Voluntary Discharge document, in cases of non-acceptance of the treatment methods.

What is a patient's right to information when faced with a medical test or procedure?

The clinical information provided to the patient or user of a health care service can contribute to a better development of the care process, improve the
relationship between the health care professionals and the patient and, therefore, influence the quality of the service.

All healthcare professionals involved in the healthcare process have the obligation to report within their functions and competencies, even when there is
the figure of the responsible physician, a figure that is not always easy to establish (as when different services are involved in the same healthcare process).

What steps should a patient take to exercise his or her rights in the event of a surgical procedure with a harmful outcome for him or her?

It is in the best interest of the individual in these medical malpractice cases to receive advice from a medical malpractice lawyer.

The medical malpractice lawyer, in collaboration with a medical specialist, will be able to confirm that the patient has indeed been the victim of medical
malpractice. The Lawyer specialized in medical negligence, will be able to give you an orientative valuation of the compensation that could result,
economically evaluable depending on the injurious result, to know which is the economic interest and to verify in this way if it compensates to start the
procedures that make the claim effective.

Once these first steps have been followed, we can claim liability for damages caused as a result of medical malpractice, by three different means that can be
independent of each other: Civil, Criminal, Administrative.

2. It develops the main functions and topics addressed in the General Health Law.

Student's answer: include your practice here so that the course tutor can evaluate it.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

Health according to the Spanish Constitution of 1978

It is a constitutional right. Article 43 of the Constitution recognizes in its first paragraph the right to health protection. In the second paragraph, it states that
it is the responsibility of the public authorities to organize and protect public health through preventive measures and the necessary benefits and services.
The law shall establish the rights and duties of all in this regard. The third paragraph mentions that the public authorities shall promote health education,
physical education and sports. They will also facilitate the appropriate use of leisure time.

The General Health Law, Law 14/1986, of April 25, 1986, regulates the actions that make this right recognized in our Constitution effective.

Develops the main functions and issues addressed in the General Health Law.

Functions:

- To universalize public health care by homogenizing rights and duties for all citizens.

- Create a governing body of the SNS responsible for the system with the competencies agreed upon and deemed necessary to guarantee its coherence for
citizens and professionals.

65
- To move public health from a comfortable preventive position to an active position as an element of knowledge support for the definition and execution
of public policies in relation to health protection.

- To overcome marketing practices and to equip itself with the appropriate information systems and technical bodies to enable a decision-making process
based on knowledge and best practices in a system that, due to its decentralization, allows the performance of different practices.

- Generate a competitive and beneficial synergy for citizens through public policies that, while respecting the full political autonomy of the Autonomous
Regions for the organization of their health services, allow the consolidation of an NHS of all and for all.

- Promote the regulation of healthcare activity that lays the foundations for guaranteeing quality care in all healthcare services and avoids adverse risk
selection or discrimination.

Topics covered:

Universal, public, quality health care, free and coordinated access.

Creation of Health Services of the Autonomous Communities.

The actions of the public health administrations will be oriented to health promotion.

Both the State and the Autonomous Communities and the other competent public administrations shall organize and develop all the health actions referred
to in this title within an integral conception of the health system.

The public authorities must inform the users of the services of the public health system, or those linked to it, of their rights and duties.

Describe the law on professional secrecy and the negative consequences of non-compliance with professional secrecy.

Student's answer: include your practice here so that the course tutor can evaluate it.

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

The 1986 Health Law itself, in its art. 10, recognizes professional secrecy as one of the basic rights of citizens:

The right to confidentiality of all information related to their process and to their stay in public and private health institutions that collaborate with the
public system.

However, as we said, the fundamental rights of the individual, which undoubtedly include the right to confidentiality of health-related data, are not
absolute; they must coexist with other rights and interests that are also relevant to third parties and to society itself. This is the difficult balance to be
achieved in the legal regime of professional secrecy.

It is the physician's ethical obligation not to disclose or allow to be known the information he/she directly or indirectly obtains about the patient's health
and life". Medical confidentiality, within the right to privacy, is the physician's permanent obligation in any professional relationship.

Art. 199 of the new Penal Code provides:

Whoever discloses the secrets of others, of which he has knowledge by reason of his trade or labor relations, shall be punished with imprisonment of one to
three years and a fine of six to twelve months.

67
The professional who, in breach of his obligation of secrecy or reserve, discloses the secrets of another person, shall be punished with a prison sentence of
one to four years, a fine of twelve to twenty-four months and special disqualification for said profession for a period of two to six years.

Description of the activity:

Angela is a 40-year-old patient who comes to the clinic for headaches and, after being questioned about some bruises, confesses that she has been abused by her husband more than
once.
The doctor is surprised since Angela's husband is also a patient of his and seems to be a nice and affable person. However, the doctor also recalls the fracture of the ulna and radius that
Angela sustained in her right arm several months ago "when she fell down the stairs" and that until now he had never doubted that it was accidental.
Angela urges him to keep the secret and not tell anyone. "He has no intention of hurting me. It's just that being unemployed is breaking him down and when he drinks he becomes
irritable. He is a good man.

Based on a factual assumption, the following is requested:

 Who is the recipient of a patient's information?


 Do family members have the right to be informed systematically, so to speak, by default, regardless of the consent, however presumed, of the patient?
 What is the scope of confidentiality in an interdisciplinary team?
 How does one articulate the obligation to treat or duty of care, the obligation of confidentiality and the obligation to warn of possible danger, especially if one is in a position of
guarantor?
 Should the healthcare professional notify the authorities of the situation of real danger to third parties or should he/she take personal steps to alert him/herself? What is the
basis for doing one thing or another?

CORRECTION BY THE TUTOR:

Who is the recipient of a patient's information?

68
Physician.

Do family members have rights to be informed systematically, so to speak, by default, regardless of the consent, however presumed, of the patient?

In this case, NO, since the patient wishes this information to remain secret.

What is the scope of confidentiality in an interdisciplinary team?

An interdisciplinary team made up of different professionals working in a common area in an interdependent manner and interacting with each other in a
formal way. They may assess the patient separately, but they exchange information in a systematic way, share a working methodology and work together to
achieve joint objectives.

How does one articulate the obligation to treat or duty of care, the obligation of confidentiality and the obligation to warn of possible danger, especially
if one is in a position of guarantor?

It should be borne in mind that the loss of confidentiality of data subject to professional secrecy, unauthorized reversal of pseudonymization, etc., pose a
risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the severity and likelihood of which will depend on the nature, scope, context and purposes of the data
processing. In order to maintain security and prevent processing in breach of theGDPR, the controller or processor must assess the risks inherent in the
processing and implement measures to mitigate them, such as encryption.

Pursuant to Article5(1)(f) of theGDPR, personal data shall be processed in such a way as to ensure appropriate security and confidentiality of personal data,
including to prevent unauthorized access to or use of such data and the equipment used in the processing ("integrity and confidentiality principles").

Should the healthcare professional notify the authorities of the situation of real danger to third parties or should he/she take personal steps to alert
him/herself? What is the basis for doing one thing or another?

The professional shall not violate the professional secrecy and shall therefore take steps to alert the same. Since the patient asked the doctor to keep this
secret and not to tell anyone.

Healthcare professionals who are on the front line against covid-19 with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) have a three times higher risk of
becoming infected with the SARS-CoV-2 positive coronavirus than the general population. And, if they do not have the proper PPE, this risk increases. These
are the results of a study that has analyzed data from more than 2 million people and is published today in"Lancet Public Health", which warns of the need
for maximum protection for these professionals.

The Health sector of CSIF, together with CCOO and UGT, have concentrated this Tuesday morning in front of the health center of Puche, located in the Mare
