This week Grand Rounds selected medical posts that reflected Narrative Medicine, which Susan says has three essential components:
- Attention: Listening carefully to patients, remaining sensitive to what they may not be saying.
- Representation: Using writing to reflect on patient interactions helps caregivers understand both their own feelings and those of their patients.
- Affiliation: The process of attending carefully to patients and reflecting on patient stories ultimately makes caregivers stronger and more passionate patient advocates.
