Health Care Practice at the End of Life : Addressing Opposite Attitudes and Diverse Contexts
Context influences how people live and die, and the availability of health care. Moreover, attitudes define how care is offered and how death is experienced. In the Global North, technological developments assure a better quality of life, but death is experienced as an enemy to fight and defeat in hospitals, often alone. In the Global South, with communal support, death is the ultimate dimension of human existence. Contexts and attitudes inform people's agency. Hence, the ethical responses vary: from resisting the medicalization of death to systemic and structural changes, Virtuous behaviors are possible; some are inspired by poems and the spiritual tradition.
