UNIT 6 MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS 2

A.      
Hospital staff

The people who
work in any type of workplace, including hospitals, are called the staff. The medical staff in a British hospital belong to one of four main
groups:

B.       
Medical teams

Consultant
physicians and surgeons are responsible for a specific number of patients in
the hospital. Each consultant has a team
of junior doctors to help care for those patients. In many hospitals, there are
multidisciplinary teams which
consist not only of doctors but also physiotherapists and other allied health
professionals.

When patients
enter – or are admitted to –
hospital, they are usually seen first by one of the junior doctors on the ward where they will receive treatment
and care. The junior doctors clerks them
– take their medical history – and examines them. Some time later, the
registrar also sees the patients, and may order investigations or tests,
for example X-rays or an ECG, make a professional diagnosis, and begin treatment. The consultant usually sees the new
admissions – people have recently
been admitted to the ward – for the first time on one of the regular ward rounds, when the management of the
patients is discussed with the registrar. Consultants also decide when a
patient is ready to be discharged
(sent home). On the ward round, the consultant is accompanied by the team ad a
nurse, and they visit all the patients in the consultant’s care.

C.      
Shifts

Junior doctors
now normally work in shifts, which means they normally work for
eight hours every day, for example 7 am to 3 pm, and are then free until 7 am
the next day. After a week they change to a different shift, for example 3 pm
to 11 pm or 11 pm to 7 am. The alternative system is to work from 9 am to 5 pm
every day and to take turns to be on
call – available to return to the hospital if necessary – from 5pm to 9 am
the next day. Days on call are set out in a rota, or list of names and times. Doctors on call carry a radio pager, or bleeper, a device which makes a noise when someone is trying to
contact them.

5. Venture Capital

1. Read the text about a venture capital company and answer the following questions.

• What
  is a start-up?

• What
  do venture capitalists specialise in?

A.
Raising capital

Alex
Rodriguez works for a venture
capital
company:

‘As
you know, new businesses, called start-ups,
are all private companies that aren’t allowed
to
sell stocks
or
shares
to the general
public.
They have to
find other
ways of raising capital. Some very small companies are able to
operate on money their founders
—
the people who start the company —
have
previously
saved,
but
larger companies
need to
get capital from somewhere else. As everybody knows, banks are
usually risk-averse.
This means they are unwilling to lend to new companies where there’s
a danger that
they won’t get
their money
back. But
there
are
firms
like ours that specialize in finding venture
capital:
funds for new enterprises.

Some
venture
capital or risk capital
companies
use
their own funds to lend money to companies, but most of them raise
capital from other financial institutions. Some
rich people,
who banks call high
net worth individuals,
and who we
call
angels
or

angel
investors,
also invest in start-ups. Although new companies present a
high
level of risk, they also have the potential for rapid growth —
and
consequently high profits —
if
the new
business
is successful. Because of this profit potential, institutions like
pension
funds and
insurance companies are increasingly investing in new companies
particularly hi-tech ones.^’

B.
Return on capital

‘Venture
capitalists
like ourselves expect entrepreneurs
—
people with an idea to start a new
company
—
to
provide us
with
a business
plan.
Because of the high level of risk involved, investors in start-ups
usually expect a
higher
than average
rate
of return
— the amount of money the investment pays —
on
their capital. If they can’t get a
quick
return in cash, they can buy the new company’s shares. If the
company is
successful and
later becomes a
public
company,
which means it is
listed
on
a
stock
exchange, the
venture
capitalists will be able
to sell
their shares then, at a profit.
This
will be their exit
strategy.

Venture
capitalists
generally
invest
in
the
early stages
of
a new company. Some companies need
further capital
to
expand before they join a stock exchange.
This
is often called mezzanine
financing,
and usually consists of convertible
bonds
—
bonds
that can later be converted to shares —
or
preference
shares
that receive a fixed dividend. Investors
providing
money at this stage have a lower
risk
of loss than earlier
investors like us, but also
less
chance of making a
big
profit.’
