Embodied Subjectivity and Ethical Responsibility for Terminally Ill Patients. Prohuman, 2009-2014, ISSN 1338-1415. September 9, 2014.
This article explores an ethical responsibility for treating the whole body in palliative care. When a terminally ill patient is facing a serious illness, they need relief: relief from pain and relief from stress and many other symptoms. Health care professionals often think that Palliative and Hospice Care need to focus on improving patients’ ability to tolerate aggressive medical treatments. But terminally ill patients themselves feel the need for more than just medical or psychological support. They need also bodily or embodied support from all involved into their care.
