Wellbeing - Humanising medicine

The BMJ Podcast

In medicine, a lot of work has been done to encourage person centred care - but can that maxim be extended to the people working within the healthcare system? Subodh Dave has just been elected as dean of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, and joins us fresh from talking at the International conference on physician health to speak about his ambition to humanise medicine. In this podcast, Subodh, Abi and Cat discuss what lessons from the pandemic need to remain, why at this time it's really important to look out for your colleague with family overseas, and how ice cream trucks meant much more than a cold treat.
