Beyond the traditional function of providing comfort and condolence to family members, the physician's duties are directed toward how our society deals with the bureaucratic and legal aspects of death. Statistics are maintained regarding the numbers of deaths in municipalities and states and the causes of death, and those numbers are used by individuals and organizations for a multitude of legal, medical, and political purposes. The state also has an obvious interest in uncovering and prosecuting crime. The physician has a vital part to play in providing essential medical information for those record-keeping, statistical, and legal purposes. Physicians need to be mindful of the important functions being served when they are asked to complete death certificates and to report cases and provide information to the medical examiner. As with many other physician activities, the information we provide about our patients' deaths serves a singular societal need; thus, we should view that function not as a burden but as a vital aspect of the enriching and enobling work that is uniquely ours.</p>","PeriodicalId":80213,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of long term home health care : The PRIDE Institute journal","volume":"17 4","pages":"2-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21059309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
