In the Chinese society, veterinarians are seen as very reliable and frequently, doctors ‘ beliefs are considered the most valuable. They are perceived as extremely intelligent, principled, ethical and possessing limited knowledge. Elders may feel comfortable deferring to doctors yet at the beliefs of their kids. Thus, identifying the healthcare proxy would be seen as insignificant to some Chinese elders. Agreement among family members is respected, and the judgment of this physician will change and point end-of-life discussions, while the thought of the healthcare proxy, or ‘ sole advocate, ‘ may be seen as a barrier to the decision-making process. Veterinarians play a leading part in the well-being of our community by caring for animals and by utilizing their expertise and training to assist and improve human health, too.
