Description

Many Voices explores the relationships and the tensions at the intersection between caring, in the context of health, and culture. As the social voices of diverse interest groups are increasingly acknowledged in healthcare, ideological friction between goals of assimilation and of diversity and multiculturalism remains unsolved. Caring (or its opposite, neglect) mediates in health-related encounters in ways that are often described more rhetorically than realistically. Here are the issues as they are experienced.
