It describes the meaning of the most important human rights involved in this area, and it addresses a variety of themes and approaches that engage with health and human rights links, including patient rights, reproductive health, and issues surrounding death and dying. Lastly, it furthermore discusses the position of a number of vulnerable groups, in particular disabled persons, the elderly, and children.
