Other dates in honor of physicians

By the way, Medic's Day is not the only holiday for medical workers. So, in some countries, May 12th is International Nurse's Day. The date of the celebration was not chosen by chance: on May 12, 1820, Florence Nightingale, one of the founders of the sisters of mercy movement, was born. But the nurses do not have their day off.

However, the servants of Aesculapius (the ancient Roman god of healing), regardless of gender, have more than enough reasons for the holiday: the Day of the surgeon, paramedic, resuscitator, therapist and dozens of other professional holidays are celebrated in Russia annually and on a large scale.

“I will not give anyone the deadly drug I ask for and I will not show the way for such a plan ... Whatever I see or hear during treatment, I will keep silent about it, considering such things a secret. I will spend my life and my art pure and blameless ".

The medical profession is changing rapidly, and the Hippocratic Oath has also changed. Modern doctors pronounce legally approved versions of the "Hippocratic oath", and in some countries the version of Hippocrates is not used at all for historical reasons. Nevertheless, the Hippocratic Oath remains of interest to historians and many medical professionals who appreciate the ancient history of healing.

Why do doctors wear white coats?

Every person who has ever been in a hospital wondered: why do doctors have white coats? The reason for this is as reasonable as it is banal. The medical uniform appeared in the 19th century, and in those days, doctors wore ordinary aprons and gloves.

Once, an English doctor, Joseph Lister, noticed that blood and dirt were clearly visible on a white apron, and suggested that all doctors wear only snow-white gowns for hygiene and sanitation purposes. The idea caught on, and in the future, the skill of a physician was judged by how much he soiled his gown during the operation.

How Belarus celebrates the Day of Medical Worker

However, regardless of where doctors meet their professional holiday, their phones will be torn all day long from calls from grateful patients.

How to congratulate on the Day of the medical worker

There are no universal recipes here. Some give traditional flowers-candy-alcohol, others show imagination and prefer presents with humor.

In a word, finding a gift for a health worker's day is not difficult.

However, when preparing a gift for your beloved doctor, it is important not to lose sight of a very important aspect: in Belarus, restrictions are legally established for receiving gifts by healthcare workers - the cost of a gift should not exceed five times the base value. Otherwise, your gift may be regarded as a bribe.

Show your imagination, come up with an unusual move, compose poems for your favorite doctor, contact your colleagues - they probably have a photo where your favorite doctor is captured at work - prepare a wall newspaper for him with humorous poems and photo collages.

Such a gift will definitely be remembered much brighter than the traditional and faceless set of flowers-candy-alcohol.
