Anderson & Anderson Accommodates the Increase in Requests for "Disruptive Physician"-Preparedness Seminars
On March 10, 2010, George Anderson, Executive Director of Anderson & Anderson, will host a "Disruptive Physician" preparedness seminar for physicians and medical personnel at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center.


LOS ANGELES, CA, February 17, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Anderson & Anderson has been contacted by the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center regarding the "Disruptive Physician" Preparedness Seminar. As a result of this phone call and a detailed proposal, George Anderson, Executive Director at Anderson & Anderson, will be hosting his second seminar at the hospital on March 10, 2010. One-hundred and fifty physicians from this hospital will be in attendance. Anderson & Anderson previously announced that Mr. Anderson will host his first "Disruptive Physician" Preparedness Seminar at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood, California. This seminar will take place on Saturday, February 27, 2010, and include the attendance of thirty physicians from that hospital. This demonstrates, once again, that hospitals are beginning to understand the important role "Disruptive Physician" programs play in the improvement of workplace morale in the medical environment, and the reduction of stress brought on by disruptive behavior.

This seminar will have the same objectives and goals that will be met during the first seminar. It will introduce the Anderson & Anderson Executive Coaching/Anger Management program for "disruptive physicians". It will demonstrate the value of non-psychiatric assessments for anger management. It will demonstrate the benefits of anger management for civility. It will identify areas of strength or weakness in recognizing and managing Communication, Anger, Stress, and Emotional Intelligence (or Empathy). It will introduce techniques for skill enhancement in Communication (Assertive), Anger Management, Stress Management, and Empathy/Emotional Intelligence. It will introduce the client workbooks with content that includes skill enhancement exercises, anger and stress logs, and quizzes designed to assess skill development in the above content areas.

Participants who are motivated will gain an understanding of what is included in the major programs for "disruptive physicians". They will learn how to refer mandated physicians to intervention programs for "disruptive behavior". They will learn the importance of "aftercare". They will learn about the relationship between intervention and Risk Management.

Each participant will be assigned a client workbook, "The Practice of Control", which is one of the two books used in the Anderson & Anderson model of Coaching for Physicians. Each participant will be given an assessment (MAP) designed to determine the client's level of functioning in recognizing and managing Communication skills, Anger, Stress, and Empathy (Emotional Intelligence). A fifth category is "Motivation to Change". A brief summary of the assessment will be given. The presentation section of the seminar will be forty five minutes in length and will include a Question and Answer section.
