Empathy and personal connection in healthcare is profoundly important and can make a massive difference for the patient and their loved ones. Each interaction, whether it's a routine procedure or a critical operation, profoundly impacts the person involved. We must see beyond the clinical details and recognize the individual at the heart of every treatment. Every patient represents a unique story and individual challenges. It's essential to acknowledge their humanity, especially in moments of vulnerability. Understanding and empathy are key. Imagine being in the patient's or a family member's shoes—this perspective should guide our actions. Alleviating fears isn’t just part of the job; it’s part of showing we care, understanding the emotional journey patients undergo as they face health challenges. Let's commit to treating each patient with the kindness and consideration we would hope for ourselves. Have a great day! #DrSinicropi #Empathy #Kindness #Humanity #People #Leadership #Healthcare #Vulnerability

In medicine, where the goal is to help others, we often forget to apply the same level of care to ourselves. That's why understanding the importance of compassionate boundaries is key. Realising that we have our own limits is crucial. Constantly working without adequate breaks doesn't make us more effective, it can lead to burnout. Setting compassionate boundaries means establishing limits that safeguard our well-being—it's not selfish, it's necessary. By clearly defining these boundaries, prioritising tasks, and delegating when needed, we ensure we stay fit to provide the best possible care. Compassionate boundaries aren't just about saying no, they're about saying "yes" to our well-being, allowing us to keep serving from abundance. How are you at setting compassionate boundaries? #boundaries #settingboundaries #yourwellbeingmatters #selfcarefordoctors #doctorwellbeing #healthehealers #humansinhealthcare

This article highlights some of the reasons people are reluctant to avoid medical care—including cost and access challenges—and how relatives and friends can provide the right encouragement.    Of course, not everyone has a loved one in their life who can serve in this role—making the role that local, trusted Community-Based Organizations play even more important.   #SDoH #SocialDeterminantsofHealth #lonelinessepidemic #communityengagement

Join us for this engaging episode of "Stand Up (for) Doctors!" Supporting doctors; offering hope! Dr Amy-Jo Farrow is an Occupational Health Physician in the U.K., and a burnout coach, helping exhausted doctors thrive. Olivia Morris is the Co-Founder and CEO of Verity Barrington and Doctors Living in Ireland, having been a physician advocate for the past 10 years. We discuss how doctors know about healthy living and what to recommend to their patients, yet they frequently do not take care of themselves in the same way. We dive into some reasons behind that, and how it's almost seen as a "badge of honor" not to take care of one's basic needs during a work shift. That is not sustainable and should not be the culture! We talk about the need to help doctors discover solutions that can be adapted for each physician's unique life. We each share a vulnerable story of how as a physician, a physician's wife, and a healthcare professional, in a time of crisis, how the notion of "the patient always come first," no matter the personal cost, took its toll. Doctors having an identity outside of their primary employment is so important, and can include building a portfolio career, exploring hobbies...whatever brings you joy and gets you energized about life! Message to doctors: Physicians need to practice radical self-compassion. Know that there are options out there, and people who can help you. Never feel like it's just you, it is not, and there is so much support available! Message to patients: If you come across a "grumpy" doctor they may be having a bad day, or missing an important family milestone to be there to care for you. Be compassionate towards another human being, it can make all the difference. Doctors AND patients need to take responsibility to restore the human connection in healthcare!

My article below - Hope as the 5th vital sign in medicine and wellbeing Hope is one of the highest correlations across the AQ #adaptability assessment. The world, the workplace and leaders need to shift #adaptability - recognized and called out as the top skill now in 2023 The impact of generative AI has reshaped the world of work more quickly than even experts imagined. To study this phenomenon, we looked at “skills of the moment” — those that grew most quickly in a defined six-month period from 2022 to 2023. One skill rose to the top of the list: #adaptability. Adaptability and agility are mission-critical for both people and organizations. And since the pace of change in the world of work is predicted to increase, adaptability will help your team stay versatile and composed amid these changes. “Adaptability is the best way to have agency right now,” says Aneesh Raman. “At the core of managing change is building that muscle of adaptability.” https://lnkd.in/dapxH_RX
