What profession do you admire most and why?
So it has to be the medical profession. Not just doctors or nurses but all the disciplines that come together to look after the sick and get them back on their feet.
How many people can look after patients day after day, deal with horrendous accidents, and come back to do the job the next day ready to start all over again.
I’m slightly biased as my daughter is a Nurse Practioner and my granddaughter is studying to be an Occupational Therapist. Two of my nieces are GPs and I see the dedication they put in their jobs every day. I couldn’t do it so I very much admire those who do.
In hospital recently with a blocked intestine I saw the patience of the Doctor and Nurse as I tried to swallow a tube to my stomach. My reflexes insured that they needed a change of clothes only succeeding on the fifth go. I would have given up.
So without them what would we do. Covid was a great example of their dedication. So the profession I most admire has to be the medical profession.
