Reflection by the Sea: a Kep weekend retreat on medical ethics and professionalism. We imagine the future where our health professionals are equipped with the skills or core competencies, including ethics and professionalism, that respond to the evolving healthcare needs. Ethics is a moral philosophy that judges human actions based on the concepts of good or bad, right or wrong, what one should do or should not do. Professionalism is a set of high standard behaviors expected by society and patients on health professionals. We are proud to be part of something bigger - a team of 10 young doctors to promote ethics and professionalism among health professions educators.

The Integrity of Medical Ethics: A Non-Negotiable Commitment !!🔔 The medical profession holds a unique responsibility—to heal, alleviate pain, and provide care that upholds the dignity and trust of every patient. At the heart of this vocation lies professional ethics, which define not just what we do but how we do it. As healthcare professionals, every action we take echoes Hippocrates’ timeless principle: "First, do no harm." Ethics in medicine is not confined to grand gestures but is evident in everyday actions—listening attentively to a patient's concerns, offering clear communication about their condition, or admitting limitations and seeking collaboration when necessary. These small acts of integrity build the foundation of trust and respect essential for effective patient care. In the words of Albert Schweitzer, "Ethics is nothing else than reverence for life." This reverence must guide us not only in our clinical responsibilities but also in how we engage with colleagues, share knowledge, and advocate for equitable healthcare access. Professional ethics isn’t just a guideline; it’s a commitment—to uphold the values of empathy, honesty, and respect that make medicine a noble profession. If you are committed to being a true and sincere healthcare professional, let us uphold these principles to ensure every decision reflects the highest standards of care and humanity. #ProfessionalEthics #Healthcare #Leadership #Healthcareprofession #Hospitaljob #Medicine #Patientsafety #Ethics #Quality #Hospital

⚖️ The System vs. Medical Ethics: A Call to Uphold “First, Do No Harm” ⚖️ The recent overturn of Roe vs. Wade has placed many doctors in a difficult position—being asked to navigate laws that may go against their ethical oath to “first, do no harm.” As physicians, our priority must always be the well-being of our patients, not the dictates of a system that disregards personal autonomy and health. 🩺 Medical ethics demand that doctors protect their patients’ rights, health, and safety—yet many are now being forced to make decisions based on laws, rather than what is medically and ethically sound. It’s time to stand firm in our commitment to compassionate, patient-centered care, and challenge any system that asks us to violate the core principle of doing no harm. Healthcare should never be weaponized. #RoeVsWade #MedicalEthics #DoNoHarm #PatientRights #HolisticHealth #StandForEthics #ProtectDoctorsAndPatients #HealthcareJustice

Medical ethics guide every decision in healthcare, ensuring that patient care is grounded in respect, compassion, and fairness. The four pillars—Autonomy, Beneficence, Non-Maleficence, and Justice—are the foundation of ethical medical practice, helping healthcare professionals do what's right for every patient. Let’s take a closer look at these core principles.
