Description
Summary:Our purpose is to bring out to what extent palliative care remains the central pivot insuring concretely, in the last analysis, the effective recognition of the dignity of the human person, namely her or his absolute dignity as an end, lending its ultimate meaning to the entire health profession. Persons in a situation of extreme fragility, or suffering or handicap, prove, in addition, to be extraordinary awakeners to humanity, pure and simple. The model to keep in mind is that of the Good Samaritan.
Il s’agit de faire entrevoir à quel point les soins palliatifs demeurent le pivot central assurant de manière concrète, en dernière instance, la reconnaissance effective de la dignité de la personne, c’est-à-dire de sa dignité absolue de fin, conférant son sens ultime à toute la profession de la santé. Les personnes en situation d’extrême fragilité, ou de souffrance ou de handicap s’avèrent en outre des éveilleurs extraordinaires d’humanité, pure et simple. Le modèle à conserver à l’esprit demeure celui du Bon Samaritain.
