Confucius's thought of "benevolence" covers important contents such as benevolence and love for others, loyalty and forgiveness, and self-reliance, which is the cultural heritage for the cultivation of medical ethics and style among medical students. Medical schools integrate the essence of Confucius's idea of "benevolence" into the medical ethics and medical style education of medical students, making it a value pursuit and conscious behavior of medical students, which is conducive to establishing strong professional beliefs of medical students, creating a harmonious doctor-patient relationship, and cultivating a sense of social responsibility for medical students. At the same time, the education of medical ethics and medical style of medical students can be strengthened by collaboratively innovating ideological and political courses, expanding the way of understanding "benevolence", and building a social practice platform.
