Hippocratic oath (2) - 2004 AD
HIPPOCRATIC OATH (2) - 2004 AD

I promise that my medical knowledge will be used to benefit people's health; patients are my first concern. I will listen to them, and provide the best care I can. I will be honest, respectful, and compassionate towards them.

I will do my best to help anyone in medical need, in emergencies. I will make every effort to ensure the rights of all patients are respected, including vulnerable groups who lack means of making their needs known.

I will exercise my professional judgment as independently as possible, uninfluenced by political pressure or the social standing of my patient. I will not put personal profit or advancement above my duty to my patient.

I recognize the special value of human life, but I also know that prolongation of life is not the only aim of health care. If I agree to perform abortion, I agree it should take place only within an ethical and legal context.

I will not provide treatments that are pointless or harmful, or which an informed and competent patient refuses. I will help patients find the information and support they want to make decisions on their care.

I will answer as truthfully as I can, and respect patients' decisions, unless that puts others at risk of substantial harm. If I cannot agree with their requests, I will explain why.

If my patients have limited mental awareness, I will still encourage them to participate in decisions as much as they feel able. I will do my best to maintain confidentiality about all patients.

If there are overriding reasons preventing my keeping a patient's confidentiality I will explain them. I will recognize the limits of my knowledge and seek advice from colleagues as needed. I will acknowledge my mistakes.

I will do my best to keep myself and my colleagues informed of new developments, and ensure that poor standards or bad practices are exposed to those who can improve them.

I will show respect for all those with whom I work and be ready to share my knowledge by teaching others what I know. I will use my training and professional standing to improve the community in which I work.

I will treat patients equitably and support a fair and humane distribution of health resources. I will try to influence positively authorities whose policies harm public health.

I will oppose policies which breach internationally accepted standards of human rights. I will strive to change laws that are contrary to patients' interests or to my professional ethics.

While I continue to keep this Oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the Art, respected by all, in all times.

OK. THESE POSERS FOR MY DOCTOR.



1. What is the worth of an oath? What is the value of a promise? Thought your word should be your bond? Any patient confidentiality?

2. Cannot see the mention of a strike or an industrial action here. What picket line?

3. How can or how come a thought of discrimination, if any, on any ground, creep or crept into your mind?

4. How can there be a room or an excuse for incompetence or failure or inefficiency?

5. Why would you reject a prospective patient (or client?), especially in an emergency?

6. There cannot be a justification for ill-treatment/unkindness, mercy killing or illegal abortion? Or can there?

7. Trust. Have you betrayed or do you plan to betray it? I know you are not infallible, but yet I believe in you.

8. Just imagine that we trade places. (I am penniless, 'dying' and in need of urgent medical attention.) In simple language, is my life truly precious?

9. What more could or should you have done? Or what have you left undone that should have been done?

10. Have you used me or do you intend to use me for an experiment without my knowledge and/or consent?

11. Those ethics mouthed, do you remember them? And what is your standing with these?

12. Do you sincerely and seriously think of the possible repercussions of your actions or inaction?

13. What price can you pay in the course of your duty? (And what basis is used for the billing, where applicable?)

14. How is your frame of mind, especially when on duty? Are there psychological issues that you are contending with? Hey, do you feel vulnerable?
