Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 The 4th dimension in Medicare. Knowledge, Technology, Money and ….? Knowledge in the field of Medicine has grown in leaps and bounds. New discoveries are being made everyday. Technological advancement has been spectacular. Newer diagnostic as well as therapeutic techniques have made difference to many a lives. But….. Considering holistically, has all this made our patients healthier, more satisfied with the services offered and feeling really cared for? Equally importantly, has all the advancement made "THE DOCTOR" happier, healthier and satisfied with their professional contribution? Financially many amongst us are possibly much better off. But let us ask ourselves has money been able to buy us peace and happiness? Do we feel happy at our inner core? Do we feel satisfied at the end of the day? Does our conscience trouble us more than occasionally? If one had to go by the morbidity statistics, as is well known, the incidence of stress related disorders is very high in Medical profession. What is the missing ingredient in our work which is taking out the joy of satisfaction from us and making us more stress prone? Surely any work that you enjoy doing can not produce stress. Time has come to reflect on the issues, our attitude to our work which affect the health professionals and the patients both. Is there a way to create a balance between our needs and the needs of our patients? We need inner core happiness as much as any one else.
