'Patch Adams'
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Hunter 'Patch' Adams saw beyond society's brusque and compassionless approach to medicine in a mighty attempt to change the system. After spending self-imposed time in a mental institution, he came to realize why people were not getting better and were, in fact, oftentimes getting worse. The lack of humanistic care made glaringly apparent by the medical community's unemotional arms-length attitude was precisely what Adams sought to correct, believing that a world without the ability to touch the individual along with healing the disease is no world with which he wanted to associate. Against the odds of the powers that be, Adams continued his endeavor to change the very essence of health care by employing the sociological perspective of symbolic interactionism as a means by which to apply a humane and holistic approach to medicine. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
