Patient Dignity (Formerly: Patient Modesty): Volume 92
"Modesty is Not About Hiding Your Body. It's About Revealing Your Dignity"
What I wrote in Volume 91 detailing this expression:
In other words "hiding your body" is a component of "dignity", a concept that is worthy of reminding those in the medical profession who simply consider physical modesty as a matter of personal "shame" for which the goal of correct diagnosis and treatment should trump. How's that??
And now..let the discussion continue with the goal of how we all, patients as well as members of the medical profession (who one day will be patients) rehabilitate and change the medical system to be the supporters of patient dignity in all of its various contents and expressions. ..Maurice.
