| Résumé : |
Inside a hospital, questions dealing with the dying process are discussed and handled by doctors during negotiations heldwith the medical support team, the family and, on occasion, the patient. In an attempt to determine how death is managed within a hospital ward, we were embedded in the palliative and intensive care unit of a hospital’s geriatric ward for two days a week over a two-year period. Moreover, we shot two weeks of film (including weekends and night shifts) showing the unit’s actual functioning. Our camera captured the work undertaken in support of patients, as well as negotiations held between doctors, nurses, nursing staff, family members and the patient.In relying on recorded notes and filmed segments, we will describe the path followed by a patient through these negotiations and decision-making steps involving doctors, family and patients. This ethnographic project helped generate trust and proximity to these very sensitive moments, with the film providing testimony of behind-the-scenes efforts on behalf of patients. We would like to thank the entire nursing team as well as the patients and their families. |
