Volunteering to Be Mortal
Incarnating Heaven
Hospice providers in the U.S. are on the horns of a dilemma.

Hospice's current business/philosophy dilemma was expressed succinctly by a study participant as attempting to incarnate heaven. Data gathered through an ongoing particip…

The hospice philosophy of care for the terminally ill emphasizes patients' control over their remaining time. This article is based on approximately three years of participant observation research in several hospice settings where the practice of providing patients control, or autonomy, during their remaining life and dying was explored. The findings suggest that, despite the best efforts of hospice staff, attempts to fulfill the goals of this ph…

Since that time, the theoretical framework has proven itself to be a viable means of understanding individual relationships within their larger contexts, for understanding the relationship between process and structure. This theoretical perspect…
