- This paper explores focus group discussions of registered nurses in municipal palliative care for older people, using data collected by researchers with an interest in health sciences.

Three types of narrative are discerned: the cautionary tale, fictionalization of profession- al experiences and the enactment of a fictive dialogue. The other professions involved (phy- sicians, assistant nurses) are positioned as the Other as a means of legitimizing the perspec- tives of the registered nurses. As the patients and their next of kin are the objects of profes- sional activities, the notion of the Third (con- necting to the Other) is proposed. The objectifi- cation is a manifestation of commitment with routinized and professional distance to the patients. (Less)
