Humanization

The Humanization is a transversal knowledge field in the health area which concentrates efforts on the ethical and empathic quality in interpersonal relations on the practice of attention, management and teaching. Its development is due to institutional actions that promote values and behaviors to a humanization culture strongly anchored on mutual respect and collaborative work for the common good. Several actions for the development of the humanization culture were accomplished in the period from 2014 to 2018. Here we are highlighting the main ones.
