Civility and Healthcare

Through the 20th Century, science has opened the body.

Into the 21st Century, civility will reopen the person.

To do even better science. Pro-civility practice and policies

Civility and Therapy Good therapists born not made? = Good manners come from a good heart. Good therapists made not born? = Good heart comes from good manners.

Legislating civility and public health? (NYC: quality of life, tobacco, obesity)

Teaching and Practicing “Relational Competence.”

Civility and Risk Good relationship with pt and family best

prevention against malpractice suit, even if adverse event.

Injured patients 50% less likely to sue when an error was disclosed and there was an apology. (Annals Int. Med. 2004)

Move in OR & CO to make it illegal to use doctors’ apologies against them in court.

Acknowledge, apologize for outcome, not necessarily take blame.

Osler’s Golden Rule

• “Alter the Golden Rule: What you do not like when done to yourself, do not do to others.”

- Sir William Osler, JHUSOM

• “Others bruise as easily as we do.”

One Step Beyond the Golden Rule!

• Think first of others’ (comfort and convenience).

• If not OK for others, don’t insist.

• Restrain Yourself!

• “presenteeism”

Counterintuitive Civility

It may be simple, but it’s not easy. Common sense isn’t always common

practice. Changing surface changes depth.
