How social factors can affect your views on death and dying

Culture can affect if an individual fears or accepts death.

Take America V Mexico. Most Americans view death as a sad and scary event for the still living. They bury their loved ones, and grieve for a long period of time until they are forgotten. Hospitals and retirement homes tend to be the end of the line. Families are almost expected to send off their elderly when they can't take care of them anymore.

Mexico has the day of the dead, where they celebrate their loved ones who have passed. It is a festive event, full of life. Families tend to take care of their older relatives, and it is less common to see them go to retirement homes.


Other social factors can include age. Children don't really think of death as a permanent thing that happens. Young adults may be more aware of death, but they do not attribute it as something that can happen to them. Middle age may worry more about their children or family members and what may happen to them. The elderly tend to already accept what will happen eventually. Many older people feel as though they have lived a full life, so they don't have as many fears of death.

What aspect of effective communication do you think is most important in the health sciences?
DedPeter [7]

Let's all think about "Health Sciences" for a second. If any of you don't know what this means..it pertains to the field of medical primarily. With that in mind, you NEED to have effective means of communication in this field for many reasons of which some include: patient medical record accuracy, medication accuracy, diagnosis accuracy.

You wouldn't want to go into the emergency room at the hospital because you broke your toe and then all the sudden you are being taken to surgery for a procedure that is taking place on you left L5-S1 (lumbosacral spine). Or perhaps due to inadequate communication processes you could accidently be billed for a procedure that you didn't have and the next thing you know you have a bill in the mail from your health insurance provider stating you owe $23,000 for the procedure that they did not cover. Things like this could happen if you do not practice effective communication in this field.
