Do We Care?: Renewing Canada’s Commitment to Health : Proceedings of the First Directions for Canadian Health Care Conference

Do We Care?: Renewing Canada’s Commitment to Health : Proceedings of the First Directions for Canadian Health Care Conference By John Ralston Saul, Richard Cruess, Bob Rae
1999 | 166 Pages | ISBN: 0773518770 | PDF | 8 MB


Examines the implications of health policy on five key areas: clinical practice, politics, economics, ethnics and law, and proposes new directions for Canadian health care. One of Canada's preeminent social thinkers, John Ralston Saul, begins the book with a reminder that public policy can be successful only when driven by the humanistic principles which fueled its formulation. Once saving money becomes a goal in itself, rather than "something we do on the side", public policy has little chance of survival. "Do We Care?" is the result of a conference entitled "Directions for Health Care: A framework for Sound Decisions" held in Toronto in October 1998.
