Personal Care
Abstract
'Personal' is the first adjective used in the job description of the family practitioner, whether they be a doctor or a nurse. Many of the problems brought by patients to practitioners are best understood and helped by practitioners who know patients as people, who understand their fears and feelings and know the problems in their daily lives.
