Happy Wellness to Everyone,
Question: How many people have experienced hatred or some type of discrimination in a healthcare setting? There are some people that are in the field of healthcare just for a paycheck. Regardless of the patient's sexual preferences, cultural backgrounds, or any other affiliations. As healthcare professionals, I believe we should learn from our patients and embrace their beliefs systems. We should never believe that our healthcare systems or personal beliefs are better than theirs. Embracing does not mean to convert, but to become aware of the differences and treat them with respect they deserve. There are many types of discrimination in healthcare such as ageism (elderly), stigma (one disease is worse than the other, weight (against fat people), LGBT (religious prejudice against gay folks), etc. These are all fireable offences and can cost the organization millions in lawsuits and even a swift change in company culture (the public perception of the business).
On the other hand, the only thing I dislike about foreign healthcare and social systems is the class system. I believe we are all made equal by the creator and to segregate or treat any human being as if they are the scum of the earth I cant stand that. Next time you are caring for an individual of a different class or race; please treat
them as if it was you or your family on the bed of affliction needing expert help. Take care and be in good health.
