There is great power in making a promise to serve a greater cause than one’s own comfort and well-being. This commitment is the essence of professionalism, and proclaiming that commitment aloud and in public establishes a firmer foundation for accountability than merely being aware of the profession’s code of ethics.
All health professionals regularly face ethical and moral challenges and can benefit from a reminder, from time to time, of the the commitment they made to support, above all, the health and well-being of those they serve. Thеrарiѕtѕ аnd Hурnоthеrарiѕtѕ might even consider posting a copy of the oath in their practice setting.
In its simplicity and clarity, the Thеrарiѕtѕ аnd Hурnоthеrарiѕtѕ oath has great power to keep us focused on the altruistic reasons that led us into this profession in the first place.
