My thoughts
1/n
1. Refuse exalted ā€˜you are demigod elevationā€™
2. If itā€™s a time critical/life death situation do not hesitate for a second (if can make a difference)
2/n

3. Do not ā€˜undersellā€™ by ā€˜discountingā€™ / free follow up /packages
4. Respect your time and space - late evenings and Sundays are for rounding and emergencies
3/n

5. Pvt healthcare is picking up not just business but the burden of an inadequate (sham of a) universal healthcare - but the public will never hold govt responsible

6. Never call it service and never call it a business either: It is a highly skilled job, period

Dear Believer,

Never make an ungodly person or a non-Christian your model for financial prosperity. Never!
They could be popular. They could tell you about their legitimate businesses. THEY COULD BE HONEST, but you can never tell. What my ears heard today?

Thread. RT.

My Mum usually tells me, "Sometimes if a rich man tells you how he made his money, you'll prefer to be poor."

I'll rephrase it:
"Most times, if ungodly, unconverted rich men (who may be attending church) tell you how they make their money, you'll prefer to be poor."
I'd a conversation with a senior colleague today. We went to do some laboratory work in a secluded lab, and he started talking (he's not a good fellow with secrets even before now).
We talked about earning as a civil servant and he told me a lot about his own work history.

Some thoughts: There seems to be an assumption in #medicine that patients receive the best care based on best evidence, where evidence usually means quantitative research (my assumption). Yet quality of care is dependent on personal characteristics of each health professional 1/
Knowledge derived from evidence is insufficient to translate into behavioural changes that support the 'best care' intention. Science-based evidence must be channeled through unquantifiable characteristics expressed by each individual health professional to provide best care 2/
These characteristics include: empathy, kindness, unconditional positive regard, non-judgemental attitude, empathic listening, intuition, warmth, encouragement, hope and so on. If we're touting science-based medicine, it must also include practice-based evidence 3/
