This progressive resource brings the innovative power of narrative
medicine to the forefront of community public health care. Chapters
describe community involvement across a continuum of control, from
health consultants describing problems and suggesting solutions to
health committees designing programs and evaluating results.
Narrative strategies to this end, including authentic dialogue and
community mapping, are examined in the context of public health and
fleshed out with examples of different levels of participation by
community members. From the respectful collaboration modeled here,
the principles of community public health care can potentially
expand beyond the immediate community into other social domains on
a greater scale. Included in the coverage: * Narratives, local
knowledge, and world entry. * Community and narratives. * What is
dialogue? * Storylines, causes, and locus of interventions. *
Community mapping tells a story. * The politics of storytelling.
Narrative Medicine and Community-Based Health Care and Planning
gives health psychologists, sociologists, social workers, and
public health administrators realistic practical insights for
tapping into the unique resources communities and clients have to
offer. This is the next step in the evolution of public health,
toward large-scale improvements in care delivery, access to and
relevance of services, and patient and community outcomes.
