\I feel like his dealer\: Narratives Underlying a Case Discussion in a Palliative Medicine Rotation
2012
Overview
The main finding of my fieldwork (which I analyzed from a symbolic/interpretive theoretical orientation) was that these internal medicine residents were learning not only the knowledge and skills particular to palliative medicine but were also needing to make a paradigm shiftfrom the norms of curative medicine (into which they had been enculturated already) to the norms of comfort-oriented palliative care in the hospice context. Anthropologists have examined the role of narrative in American medicine in various ways, for example, elucidating how medical students and residents learn to speak and write in particular ways,2 or how occupational therapists use narratives as a form of clinical reasoning.3 I build upon such work in this piece to examine how cultural narratives can be evoked or invoked in a medical discussion, revealing the power of narrative even when physicians are not explicitly \"narrativizing.\"
