Health Care with Kindness, Pt2
Manage episode 441945578 series 1807819
In the second half of this Humankind documentary, we listen to nurses in the Twin Cities who are drawn to their profession by compassion for patients. Providers reveal the difficulties of remaining emotionally “present” in a high-stress medical setting, and several patients tell what it’s like to be treated unkindly or to feel undervalued. We consider the primary importance of listening to patients as a way of conveying respect.
