Explanation / Answer

Answer: All the information about the patient should be kept private and the medical history also should not be discussed openly. Professional etiquette is one of the most important factors contributing to a successful healthcare career. Etiquette in healthcare is more than just good manners; it is about establishing respectable relationships with patients, colleagues, and supervisors.

Women have a unique vulnerability because of their reproductive function and role. Social discrimination and abuse based on gendered undervaluing of women may further compromise women’s health. Concern for family welfare may take precedence over individual health and also increase their health risk.
