Edited volume “Global Perspectives in Probing Narratives in Healthcare”

The volume Global Perspectives in Probing Narratives in Healthcare, edited by Teresa Casal and Maria de Jesus Cabral, was published in June 2023. Dedicated to the founder of the Project in Medical Humanities, Professor Isabel Fernandes, it features contributions by several researchers from SHARE, in their capacity as authors and/or reviewers, as well as by international researchers from various disciplinary backgrounds.

“Global Perspectives on Probing Narratives in Healthcare offers a multidisciplinary examination of theoretical and methodological uses of narratives in healthcare by bringing together medical aspects of healthcare and the study of arts and humanities. This illustrates specific applications of narratives in healthcare settings, including improvement of clinical skills, performance of the caring role, and self-efficacy for building a true partnership in the patient’s health journey through varied approaches, up-to-date tools, and resources that can be transferred and adapted to specific educational and healthcare contexts.”
