Don’t worry, I feel the same way around technology and computer language. When we start reading sentences where half the words are foreign, then it can seem way over our heads. And I think people have an idea that genetics is important to medicine and health care, but what role it plays (and how genes act) might be where the questions are. So that’s why I’m adding a regular feature to explain the basics and call it “What we need to know to get genetics” or something like that. Obviously, this won’t be the “complete course in Genetics 101” or “Genetics for Dummies” (there’s a already a Genetics For Dummies (For Dummies (Math & Science))’ target=_blank>book on that) but hopefully the outlines below would be...

It was published by AHRQ in August 2008, so it’s very recent. This toolkit describes how to implement the Chronic Care Model (CCM) in your medical practice. The CCM is embedded in the Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model and can be consider a foundational element of the PCMH. I would call this toolkit “The Medical Home for Dummies, Vol. I”, but then I’m sure the Dummies copyright police would knock on my front door, so I won’t.

It’s hosted by Dr. Candida Fink, M.D. and Joe Kraynak, co-authors of the popular book “Bipolar Disorder For Dummies.” They wrote a “Dummies” book about bipolar disorder?

They proved to be popular characters and eventually spawned several series of toys as well a television series and even a video game. They actually had their own comic book series for a while (Wikipedia says it was published by Archie, while the GCD names Archie as the publisher*). At the height of their television ad fame, they also appeared in a series of comic book PSA, two of which are featured here. Say “Hello” to Vince and Larry, but remember…leave the crashing to them.
