About

My philosophy of patient care is caring/looking at the patient in a holisticall way, I mean by that, as a whole person (with family, friends, psychological needs, culture, beliefs * ), and not just caring/looking at his wound, physical needs or his illness. For that, I always try to show my willingness, friendliness, being a good listener and observer, being empathetic, to be/act responsible, working as team member, among others.
