Helping people is a noble calling. It brings with it special obligations. You must be competent, and we can teach you the skills. But there is no book or course that teaches compassion.
Compassion is learned by living life, by caring for others.
In the health care profession you will experience the fears, joys, sadness and hopes of your fellow human beings. They have much to teach you. And you have an obligation to them. You have an obligation to become competent. You have an obligation to meet their expectations that you are a professional in the way you look, the way you act and the way you behave.
