Through my clinical experience, I learned that being able to empathize with your patient is very important in the healthcare field. The first week I was at Panorama City, I helped some CNAs turn a patient so they can change her dressing on a bedsore that she had got from another nursing home. The whole time she was fighting us, yelling at us, and scratching us.…
DB 1 “Innocent Amusements” Hartman’s analysis of the “precariousness of empathy” performs as preparation for her examination of how whites have often hijacked the black experience for pleasure, both as an instrument of empathy and with nefarious intentions. This subjection of the black experience for white pleasure is evidenced by minstrel shows that reinforce black subjugation (29), observations made by whites of black “merriment” as somehow describing the slave perspective (34), and the characterizations of the slave as a commodity that wants to be bought (38). After reading this, I began to think about parallels to today. Is the black experience still only legitimized and occupied when recognized by the white dominion? If so, this historical…

Empathy is extremely vital when trying to communicate with patients about their needs and concerns pertaining to their health in a healthcare setting. If healthcare providers do not communicate in a manner that patients can relate to then it can cause barriers and individuals may be less likely to receive the correct care. Health care provider may face more obstacles in treating individuals because their heart is not with their patient. Empathy extends beyond the basic understanding of the patient’s history and symptoms to include values, ideas, and feelings (“Creating Allies fir a Healthy World”, 2013). Communication can help in decreasing patient…
Hartman’s utilization of the white abolitionist John Rankin’s admonishment of slavery through imagining himself and his family as enslaved demonstrates how it actually “inadvertently confirms the expectations and desires definitive of the relations of chattel slavery” (Hartman 19). Hartman recognizes Rankin’s intentions as well-meaning, but argues, “the effort the counteract the commonplace callousness to black suffering requires that the white body be positioned in the place of the black body…” (Hartman 19). This analysis of the “precariousness of empathy” acts as preparation for Hartman’s examination of how whites have often hijacked the black experience for pleasure, both as an instrument of empathy and with nefarious intentions. This…
The first example of empathy I mentioned was the charitable act of a Mandeville priest. Rev. Tran saw that his friend was in pain and needed something that is very precious to a human being, a left kidney. His fellow priest would never ask him for a favor that great, but Rev. Tran was happy to do it. Through the entire process of tests and even the surgery, he was always very chipper and excited to help his friend. After the surgery, he felt so weak and he could barely get out of bed for three weeks.…
Argumentative Essay Empathy is something that everyone has stumbled across in their lives before, and regardless of the feelings you have towards others, you have the slightest bit of it. In her essay “Empathy: What We Need Now,” Ariana Huffington explains the importance of Empathy, and why the world would be such a better place if everyone would contribute as they should. Huffington relays the experiences of past Philanthropist such as Andrew Carnegie, and John D. Rockefeller, and how their wealth played major roles in society. Huffington’s assertion that “a great way of giving may be coming” is correct because the history of how Empathy has played out is going to repeat itself, and the way society’s moral is being boosted. Huffington’s…

My experiences over the last six years living in NYC have shaped me into the approachable and compassionate person I am today. I have been immersed in a melting pot with many different culturally and economically diverse populations. These unique experiences have broadened my horizons and allowed me to gain valuable communication skills and the ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I searched out opportunities to give back and help the people in my community both in volunteering in hospitals, educating high school students, and interning in private practices. I even traveled with the organization Medlife, setting up a medical clinic to provide basic medical care and education to people in the poor and underserved communities surrounding Lima, Peru.…
Empathy can create a stronger, more just society because when you put yourself in other people’s shoes you understand how they actually feel and can try to prevent negative things which are shown in Kitty Genovese Letter to Bystanders, Night Theme Tables, and the “I’M HERE” project.…

Empathy is a harder thing to understand for some people than others. Empathy is commonly switched with sympathy, which they have different meanings. Paul Bloom, a psychologist and professor at Yale, is writing a book against empathy. Do you think empathy is a bad thing or a good thing? People will always have different opinions and viewpoints on this topic like most other things.…
The sound of a voice hummed in the background, but my mind wandered elsewhere. Looking out a wood trimmed window, I stared at nothing in particular besides a blank blue canvas. The noise around me sounded jumbled like static until I heard my name and refocused on a man sitting back in his chair, legs crossed sipping off his tea. Distant humming became words again. “You know, Sven, these sessions might be more useful if you listened,” he teased.…
