| Summary: | Care is one of the most deeply shared feelings on earth. It is a universal need that everyone benefits from at some point in their life whether in public or private. Well care for individuals, especially aging and disabled individuals, is fundamental to creating a developed, ethical, and engaged society. In this case study, the authors turn to their experiences as qualitative researchers to consider the methodological tensions and challenges involved when conducting ethnographic fieldwork where the bodies of participants regularly experience injury, illness, and pain. |
