Healthcare Ethics in Action

This highly interaction session will utilize a series of case studies to demonstrate practical methods of identifying, analyzing and resolving difficult ethical issues that emerge in a variety of healthcare settings. After discussing the basic process of doing clinical ethics, we will apply that process to some of the most common moral problems that healthcare providers are likely to face including the need to balance respect for autonomy against the desire to secure good outcomes for the individuals whom we serve. We will pay special attention to the role that surveyors and surveying agencies can play when interacting around these issues with providers.
