Principles of PresentingPrinciples of Presenting• Decide on presentation style.• Identify suitable presentation aids.
– If you’re worrying about the technology – it’s in the way.
• Be Yourself:– Dress appropriately for the presentation.– Make yourself heard.– Keep what you say simple.
• Expect to be nervous:– Take deep breaths.
• Question Yourself:– Before blaming the audience.
Principles of PresentingPrinciples of Presenting• Preparation:
– Be organised and know what your going to say.

Presentation Skills Check List
• Seek feedback on presentations• To present better you have to:
• Believe you can do it.• Want to make it happen.
• Work at it.• Keep developing your presentations.• Look at what works and what doesn’t.
• Improve through training, reading and presenting.
• Obtain support.
Make it Interesting“I do not object to people looking at
their watches when I am speaking but I strongly object when they start shaking them to make certain they are still going” Lord Birkett.
Confidentiality Scenario• Nurse X has completed a post registration programme in
paediatrics and had applied for a post on the children’s unit. • She had been a student nurse at the same hospital and the
occupational health department (OHD) knew her past medical history.
• She had suffered several bouts of ill health during her student nurse training, and during her paediatric course was diagnosed with Crohns disease for which she was admitted for surgery.
• She went on to complete her paediatric course successfully, and undertook her final placement on the children’s unit. She completed and returned a pre-employment screening form that clearly stated that the information was confidential to the OHD.
• Following pre-employment assessment, the OHD sent a letter to the unit manager recommending that the nurse X was not fit for the post. The letter gave details of the applicant’s past medical history including sickness-absence attributable to bouts of diarrhoea. It concluded that nurse X was unfit for the post because of the risk of cross infection.
Confidentiality Scenario• Do you think there has been a
breach of confidentiality?• What do you think the Unit
Manager should do – should she be employed?
Confidentiality ScenarioThe Results
• The manager informed nurse X of the detail of the letter, because of the excellent standards of practice that nurse X had demonstrated while on placement at the unit, the manager took the decision to disregard the recommendation of the OHD and employed her.
Confidentiality ScenarioThe Results
The Facts• This was a clear breach of confidentiality. At no time was
consent sought or given for confidential medical details to be given to the unit manager.
• Had the manager followed the recommendations of the OHD the applicant may have had sufficient grounds to take out a civil action for loss of earnings and distress.
• The applicant does have sufficient grounds to take a grievance for professional misconduct to the GMC and/or the NMC.
• Where misconduct is found, the GMC or NMC have the authority to investigate, warn and/or suspend and/or remove a practitioner from their registers.
Confidentiality ScenarioThe Results
Conclusions• Where pre-employment forms clearly
state that information given is confidential to the OHD the information must be treated as such, unless there is explicit consent.
• Where information has to be discussed with third parties so that the employer can make reasonable adjustments under the Disability Discrimination Act, the applicant should be fully informed.
Searching the Internet 1 Workbook Feedback
• The purpose was about searching ‘search engines’ excluding Google.
• Its not about the results.• Most of you sent your results as a
well formatted word document.
Bibliographic Databases 1 workbook Feedback
• Exercise 1– An internet search engine is not a bibliographic
database.– The three important things to think about when planning
a database search are• Subject• Topic• Keywords
– Four keywords that could be linked to the work lifestyle are:
• Health • Behaviour• Stress• Social
Bibliographic Databases 1 workbook Feedback
• Exercise 2– Cochrane library results for smoking were 8635
results out of 7 Databases. • Cochrane Reviews [86] • Other Reviews [69] • Clinical Trials [8113] • Methods Studies [93] • Technology Assessments [36] • Economic Evaluations [238] • Cochrane Groups [0]
– The record should be cited as: • Møller A, Villebro N. Interventions for preoperative
smoking cessation. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2005, Issue 3.
