Community building in een residentiële voorziening, is dat niet paradoxaal? Dit boek haalt echter alle twijfels weg. Door te vertrekken vanuit de assets van mensen, slaagt Maite erin om mensen goesting te laten krijgen in het mee-bedenken en mee-uitvoeren van fijne initiatieven die heel dicht bij henzelf liggen. Met haar nabijheid en vertrouwen gelooft zij er sterk in dat er bij elke persoon, ongeacht leeftijd, krachten en talenten aanwezig zijn. Zo komt het hele woonzorgcentrum in beweging en wordt het een echte community. Vanuit het alledaagse worden veel zaadjes geplant, die verder groeien, zich stevig wortelen in de grond en het gemeenschapsgevoel versterken. Het gaat niet enkel over 'erbij horen', het gaat bij 't Klikt nog een stapje verder: 'ertoe doen'.Community building gaat over ont-moeten, over alledaagse dingen, over het doorbreken van homogeniteit en over de kracht van publieke ruimtes. Dit alles is terug te vinden in 't Klikt. Geen twijfels meer: dit is het startschot en de toekomst voor een verbindend en nabij Vlaanderen!https://politeia.be/nl/publicaties/333668-t+klikt

Today's physicians are medical scientists, drilled in the basics of physiology, anatomy, genetics, and chemistry. They learn how to crunch data, interpret scans, and see the human form as a set of separate organs and systems in some stage of disease. Missing from their training is a holistic portrait of the patient as a person and as a member of a community. Yet a humanistic passion and desire to help people often are the attributes that compel a student toward a career in medicine. So what happens along the way to tarnish that idealism? Can a new approach to medical education make a difference? Doctors Serving People is just such a prescriptive. While a professor at Rush Medical College in Chicago, Edward J. Eckenfels helped initiate and direct a student-driven program in which student doctors worked in the poor, urban communities during medical school, voluntarily and without academic credit. In addition to their core curriculum and clinical rotations, students served the social and health needs of diverse and disadvantaged populations. Now more than ten years old, the program serves as an example for other medical schools throughout the country. Its story provides a working model of how to reform medical education in America.
