In March 2024, the South Island Medical Staff Association, Victoria Division of Family Practice, South Island Division of Family Practice, and the Saanich Peninsula Physicians Society joined forces to host our Healthcare Rx wellness event. Participants were invited to fill in the blanks about joy in medicine. Here are a few of their thoughts:
What matters to me in my work is…
- “… Helping patients to feel empowered to care for their own health and the health of their family, community, and world.”
- “… Practicing non-judgment, compassion, and skillfulness.”
- “… Kindness, above all.”
Your turn! What matters to YOU? Reflect on your own or leave us a note on the SIMSA website – and stay tuned for more insights from your peers in future editions!
