I enjoy reading your article. It is ...Dr. Freeman, <br />I enjoy reading your article. It is true that we need to take into account the various factors that influence one capability. I believe that everyone should take personal responsibility for their actions; however assigning specific punitive behaviors to a specific group of people would lead to further racism and discrimination. It is true that clinicians play a major role in the health of their patients, but the clinician rarely ask questions beyond ones chief complaint. When I go to see my PCP, he is not concern about my social, financial, or emotional health even though these factors are primary determinants to my physical health. He is only concern about my present complaint and fixing the problem with drugs which sometimes lead to further illnesses. I especially like table 2 that was proposed by Ferrer and Carrasco that outline the series of questions that clinicians should ask their patients. Becoming more cognizant of each other’s physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial needs will start to break down the barriers of racism and discrimination that plague our communities today.<br /><br />PatricePatricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05419589950854181988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509187841033628660.post-76980299131911960272010-09-24T19:19:25.058-07:002010-09-24T19:19:25.058-07:00This is very good; obviously, all these components...This is very good; obviously, all these components, not poverty alone, need to be addressed. I think of, for instance, my own case, having moved to a healthful semirural region full of hiking trails, crosscountry ski trails in a national forest, secluded swimming holes in lakes, ponds, creeks, and rivers, etc. But try it if you're an older woman living alone (well, maybe if you're an athletic wonder you'll find hiking companions). Or try daily after-dinner walks in any non-gated neighborhood in any city, if you're old, not big, a woman, or otherwise look vulnerable. Good for you bringing up this issue.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14123646635608188339noreply@blogger.com
