TEIXEIRA, Marcus Zulian. Possíveis contribuições do modelo homeopático à humanização da formação médicaPossible contributions of the homoeopathic model to humanization of medical training. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2009, vol.33, n.03, pp.454-463. ISSN 1981-5271.

ABSTRACT To the extent that technical and scientific aspects of the biomedical model assumed increasing importance, subjective characteristics of individuality were neglected, and modern medicine became dehumanized and narrow-minded in its approach to the processes involved in human illness. A current priority for government-run health systems is the determination to reclaim the physician-patient relationship, with comprehensive concern for patients and a clear effect on the quality and effectiveness of the services provided in an effort to achieve a more humane health system. Several new initiatives have been implemented at different levels of care. Humane propositions are thus being incorporated into medical training, in both undergraduate education and the public primary care system, with the aim of understanding the social, cultural, behavioral, psychological, environmental, ethical, and legal determinants of the health-disease process at the individual and community levels. In daily clinical practice, the homeopathic model applies a humane and individualized semiological-therapeutic approach to understanding the health-disease process and treatment of diseases, with attention to the value of ethical, philosophical, anthropological, and socio-environmental determinants and thus the potential for contributing positively to assisting and complementing medical education, as long as the model’s principles are progressively incorporated into the teaching and learning process of public and academic institutions.
