AnnotationAutonomy and older people, in particular autonomy in the relationship between nurses and older people in hospital settings, is explored. The focus is the use of language and the way autonomy is presented through the language of health care practice. Case studies of dialogues illustrate, for example, how we communicate, and the effects of power and control on the nurse-patient relationship. (RH).
