Ethics and your Job
Categories: Career Advice, Related | 2008 | by editor | no comments
Being witness to violations of ethics issues places one in a very uncomfortable situation. Torn between loyalty to their mentors and the oath they took to uphold life. many such cases lead to depression which makes the medical field one of the most depressing yet rewarding carers around. Seeing people on the worst days of their lives tends to strip one of humanity for they have to let go in turn for the next patient. The notion that one leaves the job at the office is a misnomer for we humans have uncontrollable emotions we try to control often bringing home the most unpleasant thoughts.
This control seldom becomes effective enough to separate compassion and professionalism but both working hand in hand can make the big difference between a successful doctor and a failure. There are even cases of well renowned professionals leaving their jobs as one of the highest paid doctors for some other job just to end the torture of life.
