Inter-relationship of Venn diagram of Stigma and bias, professional and personal value, and personal capacity of recovery from difficulty

Introduction: Professional and personal enrichment give rise to social recognition which in
turn make the professional egoist. When such a professional encounters a patient with a high
stigma, the health care professional feels depressed. I as a healthcare professional feel that I shall
be able to use my knowledge, experience and my inner self to be successful in overcoming this
challenge.
My role as a healthcare professional.
Before I explain my learning experience and my future role I shall explain three entities through
the Venn diagram as per figure 1. In the diagram stigma and bias is intersecting professional and
personal values as well the personal capacity to recover. A person who is egoistic and feels
elated because of his professional status is affected the most when he encounters a mental patient
in his professional career. But those who can recover from such kind of unpleasant outcome
becomes successful in his career. This is the nature of every human being to face some kind of
dejection when there is an encounter with an unpleasant situation. I am going to explain the
practical case when I first encountered such a situation. I faced a patient with a borderline
personality disorder (BPD) along with a senior nurse. The unruly and incoherent behaviour of
the patient has upset each and everyone present there, but the senior nurse was well experienced
and he managed the situation in such an efficient manner that the situation became normal after
some time. This is one of the learning points which I am going to explain in the write-up.
