African Medical Auxiliaries in Catholic Health Institutions in Zambia.

      Аннотация: Illiterate and untrained African medical auxiliaries were frontline workers in Catholic mission health institutions in Zambia and played important functions indispensable to the overall provision of missionary therapeutic system. They helped in breaking barriers between the missionaries and Africans. Their functions enhanced the smooth provision of health services at mission hospitals, thereby assisting Christian medics to fulfill their vision of providing health services to Africans. These workers shaped their patients’ experiences of Christian medicine in important ways and thus influenced how Africans embraced the new form of healing.
