30、o those fixed ideas. They need shared goals and a way of testing the innovation against agreed standards. Dr. Sumego says, “The physicians may be worried about the possible chaos and efficiencies that are marketed. They also have to make the patients understand what their appointment is, and what th
31、e expectation is.” “So, if an organization was looking to start shared medical appointments, I would advise them to start the buy-in from a few champion physicians, develop the work-flow and develop some experience. Provide some support behind what that best practice should look like. Create some st
32、andards so that, as the concept spreads, you can employ that experience to start the next shared medical appointments and the next.” 28.What is the purpose of the SMA approach? A.

37、 the University of Manchester said the strength of the connection between hearing aids, cataract surgery and mental decline meant policy makers should consider hearing and sight loss screening for all older adults. Dr. Piers Dawes said, “These studies underline just how important it is to overcome t
38、he barriers which stop people from accessing hearing and visual aids. Its not really certain why hearing and visual problems have an effect on cognitive decline, but Id guess that separation, shame and the resultant lack of physical activity that are linked to hearing and vision problems might have
39、something to do with it.” “And there are barriers to overcome people might not want to wear hearing aids because of embarrassment attached to wearing them, or they feel the amplification (放大) is not good enough or theyre not comfortable.” The number of people in Britain suffering hearing problems wi
