The use of narratives as narrative discourse is a tool used to express the experiences of individuals (1). In medical sciences, the use of the narrative approach has been emphasized by Rita Charon (2). Researchers who have used a narrative approach in medical education claim that practicing narrative writing can improve health care provision (3 - 6). In the health care system, narration is the usage of literature on patients' stories to facilitate clinical decision-making for physicians. Lately, the narrative has applied a healing potential as “narrative care”, a method that uses story to improve health care. This approach focuses on patients' stories (7). The narrative plays a very effective role in making difficult ethical decisions, and therefore it is important to keep considerations and consequences in mind (8).
