Compassion to me “It is simply the transfer of love and kindness from one person to another”.
Compassion for each other
Diane Hull – Deputy Director of Nursing ELFT The best definition of compassion I have ever heard “ when my patients come to me they are very ill. They have lost all hope, they are hopeless. My compassion allows me to hold onto their hope long enough until they are well enough that I can hand their hope back to them”
Lets ask our own definition of what compassion is
Compassion is an action – its up to you to act!
