Those who dedicate their lives to careers in medical care do so out of an inherent, deep concern for the wellbeing of their patients; working long hours in desperately stressful environments to ensure that the patients they tend are able to go home to their families with a smile and a long life ahead of them, at the end of the treatment period.
The trouble is that, regardless of whether or not medical care is done by the book and even with dazzling prowess and insight, the day to day and long term wellbeing of the patient is about a lot more than getting the technical aspects of treatment spot on….a personal touch is vital to eliminating the danger of hospital stress and depression in critical patients.
