The norm is like – your patient has Risk.

Mind Well - Your Patient Has Risk…
Previously Doctors were giving assurance to patient. Don’t worry!
You will get well soon…
But  now a trend is that Doctors  tells patient or their relatives regarding true nature of the illness along with likely complications and prognosis of the disease.
Previously Doctors were using the language like – Nothing to Worry!
But Now Doctor explain the Risk of morbidity or mortality to patients relatives & then only proceeds for treatment…  Law demands this from them …It is like Must.
Previously patients were least bothered as far as knowing the name of the disease & it’s causes…
Now Doctors are made to answer all their queries like nature of disease & Risk involved.
They even may ask a question to a Doctor:
                        Are You capable?
So Doctors are coming with New Trend of Explaining Risk rather than Assurance.
