Efforts To Instill Empathy Among Doctors Are Paying Dividends

Interesting article.
But the irony for me in the article is that empathy needs to be taught and instilled and docs need to be trained to apply it????
And what about compassion? The two are not interchangeably the same. Empathy is more of a passive emotional response whereas compassion conversely includes empathy but with a desire to take action.
