HEALTH = DOCTORS ISLAND KOS
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Hippocrates of Kos was a Greek Physician and Philiosopher who is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the History of Medicine. He is traditionally referred to as the “Father of Medicine” in recognition of his lasting contributions to the field, such as the use of Prognosis and Clinical Observation, the systematic categorization of Diseases. His studies set out the basic ideas of modern-day specialties, including Surgery, Urology, Neurology, Acute Medicine and Orthopedics. “The Father of Medicine” Hippokrates of Kos is the ancient Health Captain who started with the Hippocratic Medical School on Kos Island modern Medicine.
The Hippocratic School of Medicine revolutionized ancient european Medicine, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields with which it had traditionally been associated, e.g. Philisophy, thus establishing medicine as a profession. He is also credited with greatly advancing the systematic study of Clinical Medicine, summing up the medical knowledge of previous schools, and prescribing practices for physicians through the Hippocratic Corpus and other works.
The Hippocratic Corpus (Corpus Hippocraticum), is a collection of around 60 early Ancient Greek medical works strongly associated with the Physician Hippocrates of Kos = “The Father of Hippocrates” and his teachings. The Hippocratic Corpus covers many diverse aspects of medicine, from Hippocrates’ medical theories to what he devised to be ethical means of medical practice, to addressing various illnesses.
The Hippocratic Oath – “First, do no harm” invented by Hippocrates of Kos and his Successors is perhaps the most widely known of Greek medical texts. It requires a new physician to swear upon a number of healing gods that he will uphold a number of professional ethical standards. It also strongly binds the student to his teacher and the greater community of physicians with responsibilities similar to that of a family member. His Hippocratic Fundament for Medicine 2.500 Years ago gives us still today Orientation in the complex Transformation of Medicine from “SickCare” in Silos towards “LifeCare” in scaleable Ecosystem: The Hippocratic Oath needs now an Update as a new global next generation “HIPPOCRATIC HEALTH CAPTAINS OATH” – your Input for “Leadership for Exploring sustainable Health” towards sustainable Lifecare is welcome.
