THERAPEUTICAL
SUGGESTIONS
Only doctors, nurses, health workers
in general can suggest the patient what is good for his psychophysical
well-being. It is beyond the volunteer to do it. All the more so, a volunteer
cannot make any nursing service, as it could be regarded as unauthorized
practice of this profession and it might even have penal consequences.
FALSE PROMISES
Faith is an essential ingredient
in the relation between volunteer and patient, a faith that must always
be gained and nourished thanks to a proper and sincere behaviour. A volunteer
cannot “risk” this faith by giving deceptive assurances to the patient. |
