EMPATHY:
A virtue necessary in healthcare system
Have you ever been in pain? Have you or anyone you know ever felt so sick and was welcomed dispassionately by a health worker at a healthcare establishment before? A lack of empathy, a display of no sympathy!
I have experienced it and let me tell you how I felt
An addition of insult to my injury. I felt so angry, i had to hold myself back from showing how bad I actually felt,
If all healthcare workers adopt the attitude, the virtue to empathize with each patient, then we will have a better healthcare system.
Living Petals Medical Centre built "EMPATHY" into her Core Values for the purpose of ensuring patients feel welcome, receive desired attention, feel involved and respected, while being given quality healthcare. Caring for patients as one of their very own
The Hospital team of professionals are well mannered and learned. They have 'learned, unlearned and relearned' to be sympathetic in their approaches to patients.
Thank you Living Petals Medical Centre,

Keep flying your flag until the world can see it far up the sky.
