Abstract

Otherness holds special meaning in healthcare planning. When clinicians assign the quality of "otherness" to a patient or a patient group, they may justify inadequate care by blaming the patient for the numerous management difficulties he or she presents. This response suggests that as a culture we need to be aware of the moral dimensions of otherness and recognize how this influences care. A case study is offered to illustrate the numerous barriers otherness poses in healthcare planning.

摘要

“他者性”在医疗保健规划中具有特殊意义。当临床医生将“他者性”这一特质赋予某一患者或患者群体时，他们可能会将诸多管理难题归咎于患者，从而为提供的护理不足找借口。这种反应表明，作为一种文化，我们需要意识到“他者性”的道德层面，并认识到其对医疗护理的影响。本文提供了一个案例研究，以说明“他者性”在医疗保健规划中造成的诸多障碍。
