Advancements in science and technology have provided us with the ability to deliver the most sophisticated health care in the world. Yet health professionals have come to rely on technology to such a degree that it is intruding on the doctor-patient relationship. An effective, comprehensive system for delivering health care should include ways of helping patients keep their health, not only to regain it once it is lost. Health professionals will need to assist not only their patients, but the public as well, to keep their health.
科学技术的进步使我们有能力提供世界上最先进的医疗保健服务。然而,医疗专业人员对技术的依赖程度已经到了它正在侵扰医患关系的地步。一个有效、全面的医疗保健提供系统应该包括帮助患者保持健康的方法,而不仅仅是在健康丧失后恢复健康。医疗专业人员不仅需要帮助他们的患者,还需要帮助公众保持健康。
