Etiquette of listening to others when they speak

Etiquette: When someone is talking, he must be listened to with care. If the listener faces any ambiguity in understanding, he must inform and ask the speaker and make it clear. Do not act without understanding and only by assuming. Sometimes if someone is requested/ordered to accomplish a task and he starts doing it without clear understanding, such act results in infliction for the person being served.

Etiquette: When someone is speaking to you don’t be inattentive. Such behavior hurts the speaker. Especially when someone is speaking for your benefit or answering your question, much more attention should be paid. Even if there is intimacy between you and speaker, to be inattentive while he speaks is very unfair.

Etiquette relating to visiting the patients

Etiquette: If someone has a blister on his covered limbs (sexual organs etc) do not repeatedly ask him about it. Because, this makes him ashamed.

Etiquette: Return soon after you visit a patient so that the patient himself or his relatives don’t get disturbed. If the patient needs to do something personal, he must directly let his visitors know that now he needs to be alone. Sometimes in such cases through gesture and posture the patient expresses his intention; however, the visitors don’t understand clearly. As a result, the patient suffers.
