Physicians who are not trained in the primary care specialties of family medicine, general internal medicine, or general pediatrics may sometimes provide patient care services that are usually delivered by primary care physicians.
Word Origin and History for hospitality Expand n. late 14c., act of being hospitable, from Old French hospitalitÃ©, from Latin hospitalitem (nominative hospitalitas) friendliness to guests, from hospes (genitive hospitis) guest (see host (n.1)).
The French word from which it descends, descendre, ultimately comes from a Latin term whose literal meaning is âto climbâ (scandre) âdownâ (de-). Though the word descent has been around for over half a millennium, some of its early senses are still in use. In the 1330s one use of descent described familial ancestry.
