Empathy: The Human Connection to Patient Care
Patient care is more than just healing — it’s building a connection that encompasses mind, body and soul.
If you could stand in someone else’s shoes . . . hear what they hear. See what they see. Feel what they feel. Would you treat them differently?
CEO Toby Cosgrove, MD, shared this video, titled “Empathy,” with the Cleveland Clinic staff during his 2012 State of the Clinic address on Feb. 27, 2013.

what is the music in this video- its amazing..
That was deep… A strong call to have a good sense of empathy… #Life&ItsDramas
Its amazing how Cleveland Clinics pointed to the various type of patient visiting the clinic, as well as their employees in the video. Its really touching seeing their lives and the unspoken challenges and joy they experience.
Indeed, I am moved to want to visit their clinic when need arises. Everyone would love to be treated so well and in close knit with their peculiar situation.
Who came here through TEF Hub? Heartfelt video, lets learn to see others through the eyes of love..
You spelled sympathy wrong
Oh my, the tears. …I cry so hard. …Much love from me to all of you. <3
it's very thinkable.
Very powerful, thank you!
I work in a hospital as an Admin assistant. Because of this amazing video I try and help someone every day. It had certainly changed the way I view the world. Inspiring.
Life, is so precious.
Man, oh man
Wow…well done Cleveland Clinic..Well done. Small things, big message.
Good video
i always wanted to make a film like this.. but outside with every people.
This touches me deeply every time that I watch it. Having worked in health care for 27 years, I was fortunate to have worked at the Cleveland clinic early in my career. Those were 2 of the best years of my life.
just want to know what on earth garnered 340 dislikes for a video like this
Our community college nursing staff uses this video. We would like to contribute closed captions. If you check the box for contributed captions, we can submit them, you can approve them, and then they will be available to all who need them.
oohh…..this is touching…
Is there a video like this for kids though? Great video! Looking for something to show elementary students with this type of power.
Really wondeful video to be watched by all health professionals
3:20. Alfred Jones, some to Mama!
They always play this at work and I'm always crying!
Very awesome. If we all walked around with the perspective that "everyone is going through something" would we be more compassionate and kind?
ITS THE TRUTH BUT ALSO! A PLAY ON YOUR BRAIN…..
BECAREFUL OF THE COLORFUL BOX THAT YOUR WATCHING THAT BRINGS EMOTION FROM OUT OF THIN AIR.
yes I have been in their shoes, I can relate this is sad now I look back but see how far I have progressed, seen then Thank you God.
Very impressive, and relevant.
Had to watch this at school for the tv announcements
If we all put our shoes in someone else life would be different for all of us.
amazing
amazing
Okay, this is pretty much the chic-filet spot. Like holy sweet muffins, this is the exact video as the love people who eat chickens video.
You cannot trust everybody to take you off life support they have to ask you the patient
Is there a specific song for this? I wanna learn this on piano!!
I would like permission to use this video during a presentation I am giving for work. How would I accomplish getting permission?
I have empathy I'm so empathic, that once I build a connection with somebody I like.. I will have things like nosebleeds if they do.. Although I'm not a nurse, however I help the human race in so many ways. ☺
This is a brilliant ad. I have been in and out of hospital this year many times with a chronic condition. I felt every bit of this video.
What a lovely video. It reminded me of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals who look after me and my loved one's health who are so caring and listen even though they have maybe heard the same things a thousand times before. We are all different and react differently to what we encounter through our lives.
Sadly there are some who really shouldn't be in the health or caring professions at all and should take a good hard look at themselves in a mirror and consider a career change.
Seems strange to have to promote something like this. on the one hand we are not in societies where compassion is the most important thing. But on the other hand it pays, literally, to look like you care. Someone insufferable could have problems, like serious illness, or a rough background… which they still don't deserve, right. People with a poor level of empathy or care for the feeling of others can have bad things happen to them. It's one of those ongoing guilt trips – but only for those capable of guilt.
Bijzonder mooi in beeld gebracht Als we mochten kiezen welk kruis je wilt dragen????? Iedereen kiest dan toch weer z'n eigen kruis. God is erbij, hoe dan ook,
God, give us Your eyes.
Empathy is great. But half of doctors have fake empathy. It's because medical schools force them to show 'empathy'. Empathy is one of those things where you either have it or you don't. It can't be forced, just like love can't be forced nor belief in ideologies.
Beautiful video!!
this video set me think and never forget!!!
What's the name of the soundtrack ? It's amazing!
Reminds me Patch adams
