Perhaps you have never heard of Katherine Lawes.Katherine was the wife of Lewis Lawes, warden (监狱长) at Sing Sing Prison from 1920 to 1941.In these 21 years he made many reforms --- and an important part of his success was due to his wife Katherine. Katherine took seriously the idea that the prisoners are human beings ,worthy of attention and respect .She regularly visited inside the walls of Sing Sing.She encouraged the prisoners, took things to them and spent time listening to them.Most importantly, she cared about them.And as a result, they cared deeply about her. Then one night in October of 1937, news was "telegraphed" between the prison cells that Katherine had been killed in an accident.The prisoners asked the warden to allow them to attend her funeral.He agreed to their strange request and a few days later the south gate of Sing Sing swung slowly open. Hundreds of men who had committed almost every crime imaginable marched slowly out of the prison, later gathered again at the gate and returned to their cells.There were so many that they proceeded unguarded.But no one tried to escape.If he had,the othersmight have killed him immediately.So devoted were they to Katherine Lawes, the woman who daily walked into Hell to show the men a piece of Heaven. Katherine' s strength was to see the men less as prisoners and more as individuals.Thomas Moore once said, "We can only treat badly those things or people whose souls we show no respect for." |

There is increasing recognition of the need for health workers to continue their education through-out their careers. Not only do health workers themselves wish to improve their own skills and compe-tence. but the introduction of new techniques and equipment and the changes taking place in health needs and health care policies necessitate continued training. The phrase "health care" is intended to mean not just curative treatment for the sick but the whole range of provision for promoting health and preventing disease.
In virtually every situation some response to this need has been made, so continuing education does take place-even though it may in many instances be ineffective or insufficient. Continuing educa- tion may be initiated by the health workers themselves, by their supervisors, by the managers of the health system, or by other agencies such as professional associations, publishers, and drug compa- nies. The form. of the continuing education may be written materials (journals, books, ad'vertise- ments) , meetings, courses,supervisory visits, or a variety of other methods.
With this diversity of approach it is not surprising that the effectiveness of the continuing educa- tion should be variable. So it is natural that in many countries there is a concern that more continuing education should be provided and that it should be more effective.
The approach suggested that to achieve this aim is to develop a "system" of continuing education. This term needs some explanation as it is capable, of being interpreted in many ways. A system is not the same thing as an organization that provides continuing education. It is much more than that. It is the sum o~ the educational activities, the organizational structure that supports and manages those ac- tivities, the management, and the external agencies involved in the provision of health care. The sys- tem should comprise a nationwide coordinated program in which technology and resources are optimal- ly used.
Health workers themselves are aware of the importance of continued training
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
