Towards an Efficient Practice in Medicine: The Contribution of Humanities and Social Sciences to Health Sciences
Author: Labari Fares
Category: JMSR Medical Education
Abstract:
The nature of practice in the health profession goes beyond technical intervention alone. It encompasses the humanistic dimensions, relationships, interactions, emotions…etc. and calls for skills that transcend the technical domain. Curricula and study programs in the health sciences suffer from a sheer lack or even absence of training in the Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) such as history, philosophy, sociology, anthropology despite their importance in the exercise of health professions.
Keywords: Health professions, Health Sciences, Medical Education, Morocco, Social Sciences
