Humanism in medicine means being present and sensitive to the needs of the people around us. It means providing what we can, whether this takes the form of a listening ear, knowledge, guidance, or even basic necessities such as food and water, to promote the overall health and wellbeing of patients and those involved in their care.

Humanism in medicine is creating the space where a patient can feel comfortable unloading whatever fears and concerns they have regarding their physical and mental wellbeing. It is then truly listening to the patient’s story, recognizing them as a whole person, and responding in a way that uplifts their inherent dignity and value as a human being.
