In this study, the relationship between the ethic of care and hospice documents is explored. This project includes an in-depth discussion of the nature of documents designed for the hospice situation. Specifically, it focuses on hospice documents as a way to study the effectiveness of feminist ethics to connect with a specific audience. Feminist ethics are significant to study within hospice documents because, as the act of hospice is rooted within the ethic of care, hospice documents provide an excellent forum for implementing feminist ethics into technical writing. This project studies how "caring for" people is expressed in technical writing and how docimients and subsequent training can be vehicles for feminist ethics. Usiiig surveys and interview methods, this thesis identifies major themes present in hospice documents and among hospice workers. These themes are then outlined and discussed in light of Mary Raugust's theory of the ethic of care: a distinct and particular other, interdependence, and a non-linear, accepting approach to processes. Finally, conclusions are drawn about the way in which hospice documents function and ways in which improving docimients could, in turn, improve technical commurucation, technical communication pedagogy, and, most importantly, the hospice experience for patients and families.
