Risk Management and Safe Practice Planning – For student to the most advanced practitioner.

By Cynthia Flint Bestani with Dr. Peter G. Fernandez &
Neil Gumenick, M.Ac. (UK) Lic.Ac. (NCCAOM)

Table of Contents



The book and the Holistic Practice Plan
are designed to move a practitioner from the different levels of competenceunconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, unconscious competence and finally conscious competence in every area of preparation for clearer professional practice.

These are often questions, ethics and safe practice considerations that we might not normally think to address, particularly in areas of practice in which we don't know we don't know–or even think to ask or consider.

These materials help us move through these levels with greater confidence and awareness–whether it be as beginning student or advanced practitioner.

The materials help us each get clear on what to be aware of, how to what to build into practice and why to do it.

86 pages of the 516 of the Art of PM book are specifically devoted to Ethics, Standards of Care, Risk Management and Safe Practice Planning. The remainder of the book contains the steps with these approaches, including policies, and procedures to implement ethical safe and reputable practice.

How Does the Health Professional's Practice Management Plan Format relate to ethics and risk management?

The Plan shows the understanding and evidence of how the student or practitioner would carry these out.

Furthermore, the whole of the practice plan was designed to meet accreditation competence requirements in all the areas required by the ACAOM (Accreditation Commission of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine) and most likely it meets the accreditation criteria for other health care fields.


Result: Greater confidence and awareness attracting those who would come into a clear energy field.

Table of Contents
MORE about the Plan: Sections were designed with input from risk management author, David Kailin, and attorney. Jerry Green, who specializes in responsibility training for physicians and alternative health care providers.

The practice plan's section 4 and 5 provide evidence of professional responsibility in risk management, ethics and accountability in practice in areas which a consciously competent practitioner would develop awareness, policy and procedure, as well as in his or her communication skills.

These sections were designed to clarify the practitioners understandings. attitudes and expectations of what is required legally, in the biomedical community, in relationship to the public as well a with patients, and what steps the practitioner can and will take to minimize risk and create safe reputable practice and clear communication.

Recommended for ethics and practice management classes, and for long term use over the life of the practice.


Syllabus links the Art of PM and the Holistic Practice Plan together, The Practice Plan adresses scope of practice issues and can be further enhanced by using the laws and regulatory aspects developed on the links section of the From Tao to Earth website.


TOGETHER The book and the plan are designed to clarify practitioner expectations of not only their roles and that of their patients, but emergency measures, how we measure patient progress, how we set up the dynamic of the therapeutic relationship, how we address managed care ethical issues, whether or not we use correct documentation, and to test our knowledge of health care practice moral and legal requirements, including the gray areas, such as right to life issues and many others issues.
