This is why a properly funded, healthcare system adequately staffed by highly educated and knowledgeable healthcare professionals is imperative, for the health and well-being of society. That being said, there’s also a great need for staff to be compassionate and empathetic.

I go so far as saying that compassion and empathy, should be a prerequisite for anyone involved in direct patient care. Although I’m not sure how you would assess that in an individual interviewing for a job.
