| Popis: | With the scientific, technological and industrial potential of humanity on the rise, as well as advancement in the ability to improve the environment and significantly change its conditions of existence, the moral question of our exact actions becomes more acute. As time goes, more meaning is given to the concepts and values of humanity. Formerly, if the dominating principles in culture were based off of religious, esthetic and utilitarian-practical values, as well as curiosity, then today, the main principles for the well being of humanity should be dictated by ethics, as they will be crucial for the development of both culture and society.Other than moral and ethical individual qualities, a doctor must have the required professional training, have the skills and knowledge needed in practice, know how to adequately evaluate the patient as well as their own practical abilities and risks, be able to endure and have confidence in their own capabilities, as well as have communicative aspects — such as personal appeal, kindness, respect for surrounding people, tactfulness, being observant, available, and trustful, as well as being able to obtain trust easily. However, despite the considerable amount of doctors who patients avoid, or only visit in dire need, a large amount of practitioners not only effectively do their job, but also come close to the depiction of the «perfect doctor». Our opinion is that psychological preparation as well the doctors readiness is of utmost importance. Physicians should have affection to both the ill and the healthy. Concerning the ill, doctors must feel more respect and be more understanding. First of all, any emotion might harm rational thinking, thus worsen potential results of intervention. Second, we inherently don’t want to harm our loved ones, this way close relationships might inhibit both diagnostics and treatment. In current conditions with the popularity of nihilistic and pragmatic ideas in society, the refusal of moral constructs creates certain professional, social and juristic problems. The issue of medical ethics and deontology has become more acute in the end of the previous century. This happened on the back of changes in the sphere of social economics and medicine, fueled by low pay rates, improper financing and the creation of a market in the field, something that isn’t characteristic of medicine. Growing are occurrences of dehumanization, as well as the distance between doctor and patient expanding, which is caused by new laboratory research methods and instrumental diagnostics. |
