Certain people, like medical professionals, have the power to demonstrate and inspire change. HealthMaker Susan Desmond, Hellmann, MD, MPH talks in this video about what role modeling is and how it can affect others.
How we treat other members of the health care team. What's the interaction I have with the nurse of pharmacist, what's the interaction I have with the patient and their family. So I think we all under estimate the power of role modeling, both positive and negative, and I think that is very important.
