Maybe they should require medical people to meet real, live human people speak their stories out loud once a year as part of their continuing education....boy, this was powerful.

Powerful reminder we are treating humans, not patients (or worse, room numbers). Once I saw a past patient in a local business, dressed in “street clothes” sans hospital gown. I barely recognize them and admittedly thought to myself “wow, I didn’t know they could look so healthy, so normal..” it reminded me these people too have jobs, hobbies, talents, friends, lives just like me! Thx for another reminder
