Frailty and Fragility: Framing a Diagnostic Category
International Journal of Feminist Approaches to Bioethics 12 (2):1-17 (2019)
Abstract
Frailty has recently become a medical category with physical symptoms that define its diagnosis. This paper uses the resources of an ethics of care to analyze the relationship between frailty and fragility or vulnerability, the positives of frailty becoming a diagnostic category, and some problematic aspects of the same process.Links
