Abstract:
Modern medical model advocates holistic medical treatment and holistic care, which transforms the concern about diseases in traditional medicine into the concern about people in modern medicine. Narrative medicine, as a tool for practicing holistic medical treatment and holistic care, runs through the whole process of patients’ entering medical procedures. It not only meets the needs of patients’ disease-related narratives, but also provides a new and more comprehensive way of communication for both doctors and patients, which is helpful to promote the comprehensive recovery of patients and the healthy development of doctor-patient relationship. At present, narrative medicine is facing some difficulties in the process of local practice in China. Social work, as one of the main bodies of multi-disciplinary and inter-professional cooperation in the medical field, can give full play to its professional advantages to help the new exploration of narrative medicine practice in China.
