[The "pocahontanization" of seniors in nursing care]

While the concept of elder, used in the world of nursing, refers to the elderly, its use in the world of "autochthony" in no way refers to the same representations. The inclusion of the concept of elder in the nursing narrative dedicated to First Nations people is a culturalist drift that diverts care from its obligation of openness and attention to the subject. It would seem salutary to revisit this use of abusive categories in the world of nursing, as it runs counter to what we claim to defend through cultural securitization approaches, which are more fashionable than reasoned.
