The problem of continuous student interruption and the issue of communication with management were chosen for the study.</p> <p>The study was implemented within an action research framework. The interrelationship with Primary Health Care has been noted.</p> <p>Implementation of an appointment book designed to incorporate individual lecturer time preferences, has succeeded in eliminating the continuous interruption by students and has in turn resulted in stress reduction in lecturers. Concurrently, students' stress has been reduced by better management of their time.</p> <p>There has been considerable improvement in communication between management and lecturers, management setting aside one staff meeting per month for 'open communication'.</p> | |
