Teaching Hospitals In England
Teaching is the practice implemented by a ''teacher'' aimed at transmitting skills (knowledge, know-how, and interpersonal skills) to a learner, a student, or any other audience in the of an educational institution. Teaching is closely related to ''learning'', the student's activity of appropriating this knowledge. Teaching is part of the broader concept of ''education''.

Indeed, in psychology, teaching is defined by the intention of the teacher, which is to transmit information and/or behavior and/or skill.

However, if teaching is defined by its function, it is then possible to a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
NHS Hospitals In England
The National Health Service (NHS) is the term for the publicly funded healthcare systems of the United Kingdom: the National Health Service (England), NHS Scotland, NHS Wales, and Health and Social Care (Northern Ireland) which was created separately and is often referred to locally as "the NHS".

Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, provided without charge for residents of the United Kingdom apart from dental treatment and optical care. In England, NHS patients have to pay prescription charges; some, such as those aged over 60, or those on certain state benefits, are exempt. Taken together, the four services in 2015–16 employed around 1.6 million people with a combined budget of � ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Specialized hospitals can help reduce health care costs compared to general hospitals. Hospitals are classified as general, specialty, or government depending on the sources of income received.
