principles of heroism for medical professionals
what it takes from doctors and other healthcare professionals for people to see them as heroes

altruism

Focusing generosity on others not for your own reward

helping people who have real need

Helping those who cannot overcome a challenge themselves

self sacrifice 

Giving more than the minimum effort to extract payment... Giving despite the risk of losing something of personal value

courage

Taking on tasks not because they are easy... Maintaining determination to uphold moral correctness

Why did you become a healthcare professional?

Was it to have a steady income?  Was it to learn practical knowledge?


Or was it to become a hero to somebody?
