Powerful and deeply moving article by Donald M. Berwick, MD, with the commentary Compassion-Driven 6 Action Items in Donald Berwick’s Visionary Article are Doable by AIMI founder Barry Kerzin, MD.
We often “take on” or “own” the pain of others, which can be overwhelming and lead to burn out. Especially in today’s time of the Covid-19 pandemic, when we see so much suffering around us, there are ways we can have a broader perspective of the situation; to have clarity of mind to make better decisions.
Compassion is the wish and action, when we are able, of reducing suffering. There is compassion for others, as well as compassion for ourselves. When we shift from empathy to compassion, emotionally we can see the situation more fully with an eye on what we can do to help.
During this interactive session, organised by Synergos, Dr. Kerzin asked the group to explore the journey towards compassion.
