Keywords:
Medicine. Hospitality. Patient Care. History of Medicine. Humanization of Care. Contemporary Challenges.Abstract
The trajectory of medicine is closely linked to the practice of hospitality, which has been an essential element in healthcare throughout history. From ancient civilizations to contemporary healthcare systems, hospitality has played a crucial role in promoting well-being and aiding in patients' recovery. This article examines the historical importance of hospitality in healthcare, spanning from ancient civilizations to modern healthcare systems. Hospitality in medical care extends beyond clinical treatment, encompassing the establishment of trust, empathy, and solidarity among patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. Over the centuries, hospitality has evolved to embrace a more humanized approach, influenced by cultural, religious, social, and technological factors. Contemporary challenges such as cultural diversity, access to healthcare services, and medical ethics are discussed, as well as future trends such as personalized medicine and technological advances. Understanding the evolution of the relationship between patient care and healthcare throughout history is essential for a more empathetic and patient-centered medical practice, aiming to build more humane and effective healthcare systems.
