What qualities should a modern doctor have? Selflessness, kindness, humanity, perseverance, courage, morality, attention, sensitivity, psychological stability, diligence, humanism, nobility and you can still list this list for a long time... Yet from Greece went tradition to swear an oath to Hippocrates ( Hippocratis jus-jurandum). This tradition has been preserved in our time. V. I. Rudnev translates the Hippocratic oath as follows:
I swear by Apollo the physician, by Asclepius, by Hygiene and Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, taking them as witnesses, to perform honestly, according to my powers and my understanding, the following oath and written undertaking: to consider him who taught me the art of medicine on an equal footing with my parents, to share with him my.. I will direct the treatment of the sick to their advantage according to my powers and my understanding, refraining from inflicting any harm or injustice. I will not give anyone the deadly remedy they ask of me, nor will I show them the way for such a scheme... Pure and immaculate will I spend my life and my art. Whatever house I enter, I enter for the benefit of the sick, being far from all that is intentional, unrighteous, and pernicious...Whatever I have seen or heard concerning the life of men in the course of treatment, and also without treatment, which should never be divulged, I shall keep silent, regarding such things as a mystery. To me, who unbreakably fulfills the oath, may happiness in life and in art be given, and glory to all men for ever; to him that transgresseth, and to him that taketh a false oath, let the reverse be done.
The main building of onmu has an updated this year student alley.
