In the medical field, what does "emotional support" primarily aim to provide?

  1. Identifying with feelings of others

  2. People/tools aiding emotional well-being

  3. Rapid mood changes

  4. Old age

The correct answer is: People/tools aiding emotional well-being

Emotional support aims to provide people and tools to aid emotional well-being especially in the medical field. Identifying with feelings of others is an aspect of empathy and may be helpful in providing emotional support, but it is not the primary aim. Rapid mood changes and old age do not accurately represent the purpose of emotional support in the medical field.
