Human dignity, Respect, Humiliation, ShameResumen
Disrespect, humiliation, and shame often affect patients' behavior as they receive treatment because these factors can cause emotional trauma. They can also make medical delivery and service difficult for patients and clinicians because they affect patient-physician relationships. They can cause distrust and anxiety among clinicians, patients, and families. They affect contagious and chronic patients more, especially when treatment is unavailable. This work suggests that promoting human dignity in healthcare is a remedy for reducing disrespect, humiliation, and shame between patients and physicians. It sees human dignity as a universal principle inherent in many cultures and laws. It uses the datum to treat others the way you would like them to treat you to discuss the topic. It concludes that the golden rule is a moral virtue. It is also relational, reciprocity, and connected to human dignity
