Abstract

How can the relationship between Family Practice and Patient-centered care be further strengthened through Narrative Medicine? Such reflection is necessary since the biomedical model and the technological advancement of imaging exams have exceeded the importance of the narratives of sick people in care. Also using a metaphor, this work was developed around the “body’s concert”, comparing the three movements of narrative medicine (attention, representation, and affiliation) to the three acts of a musical concert. Rita Charon is the main theorist. The aim was to demonstrate how the link between Family Practice and Patient-Centered Care can be used not only to question, but also to add to the biomedical model; and, for that, the key tool of this link was narrative medicine.
