Actually consent and counselling are the two things which are sisters,not separable and not to be read in book.It has to be practiced ,the more you practice the more you learn.This skill improves with age and the variety of patients you consult.
Readers,Few things of software development are not learnt IN IT or engineering schools.These are the things which has to be emphasised before teaching anything It's What,Why and how.... Anyone can bet that this software is the development of a newcomer... In our field,,the moment we take admission in medical colleges,,we as a student start thinking that I can do anything ,i am the best and start experimenting,and hence the crash
I know a student of my field who ligated ureter twice during hysterectomy ,who used to think that as soon as he gets the degree, he would have name and fame like his teacher,,,,but few things come only by experience .
Here comes the need for SUPERVISED TRAINING,one of my topics of discussion in my book "Applied medicine".
Once you learn the art of counselling,90 % of your treatment is done..The moment you learn to read the face of your patients,you can be assured that at least "you have identified the problem and how to work on it".I have started reading faces in clinical practice and getting into the depth of the problem of the patient.....
Counselling and consent are the two domains which needs to be defined first...

The New Paper is a newspaper in tabloid form. It was originally published as a "noon paper", but since 2016 has been published daily as a freesheet in the morning from 7 a.m. onwards .
First launched on July 26, 1988, by Singapore Press Holdings (SPH), it had an average daily circulation of 101,600 in August 2010, according to SPH.[1]
In 1991, the paper organised the New Paper Big Walk, a mass-participation walking event. The event became to be held annually in Singapore. It holds the official Guinness World Record as world's largest walk when a record-breaking 77,500 participants joined on May 21, 2000.
There is also a noon edition that hits the newsstands on Mondays and Thursdays that gives more special coverage of late-night association football matches that occur after the morning edition goes to press. The New Paper was Singapore's second-highest circulating paid English-language newspaper before it became a free newspaper in December 2016.
The New Paper is noted for its coverage of sports news, particularly of association football (e.g. the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League). Amongst its sports journalists, Iain Macintosh was voted second runner-up for Best Football Journalist held by Soccerlens.com website in 2010.[2]
FiRST which was originally published as a monthly, merged with The New Paper in May 2009, and was published as a weekly pull-out rather than monthly.
The New Paper is often compared to the tabloid Today, although the latter positions itself against The Straits Times. The New Paper targets readers with more eye-catching tabloid journalism featuring sensationalist headlines. It tends to focus on local human-interest stories, with extensive sections on entertainment, fashion and sports. There is, in comparison with The Straits Times, very little coverage of international news. However, according to SPH, The New Paper presents "news with sharp angles not seen elsewhere", and perceives its paper to be "stylish", "arresting" and "easy to read" while tackling "complex issues".
But the newspaper's average daily sales had dropped to 60,000, according to Warren Fernandez, Editor-in-Chief of the English/Malay/Tamil Media group of SPH, before it became a freesheet.[3]
On 17 October 2016, Singapore Press Holdings announced a 10% cut of staff,[4][5][6] and that My Paper and The New Paper (TNP) would be merged to form a revamped TNP that will be a freesheet from December 2016.[7]
Distributed free of charge, The New Paper aims to reach a circulation of 300,000, matching Today, the other English-language free newspaper in Singapore.
