Abstract:
It follows from resource scarcity that some form of healthcare rationing is unavoidable. This implies that potentially beneficial medical treatments must be denied to patients to avoid unacceptable sacrifices in other areas of society. By focusing on four, core, conceptual themes – individual responsibility, paternalism, incentives, and inequality – this thesis explores the matter of finding justifiable grounds for saying no in the context of health care.

This heuristic research project examines my personal use of art making as a form of self-care while interning in a pediatric hospital.

The literature suggests that self-care is a necessary process, that self-care is not just for the physical self, but also for one’s mental health.
