description | The involvement of peer support workers in care teams re-enacts a process of assigning and delegating tasks relating to patient care. Peer support workers carry out emotion-related work in their day-to-day task of accompanying cancer patients, which has been present throughout the conversion process. However, since medical and scientific environments generally tend to reserve a phlegmatic reaction to the expression of emotions, peer support workers employ various strategies for self-control and for that of the patients they help. Emotional work of this kind enhances the relationship between the patient and carer; emotions help both to accompany the patient and to acculturate patients to the carers’ work. While the time spent on this work shows that it is one of the essential components in the professionalization process of this new profession, it also calls into question the relationship model(s) and could facilitate the caregivers’ connection with emotions. |
