Every accredited American hospital is required to have a process
for handling ethical concerns within the institution. For the most
part, hospitals satisfy this requirement by constituting an
institutional healthcare ethics committee (HEC). However, many of
these individuals, while well intentioned, have neither the
training in ethics, nor the tools at their disposal to address
properly the ethical considerations brought to them. Yet healthcare
providers and patients turn to these committee members for ethical
insight. This book focuses on HEC member education by providing
definitive and comprehensive learning content for members of HECs.
This second edition is fully updated throughout and adds new
chapters that reflect the evolving nature of health care. Chapters
are written by internationally recognized experts in bioethics and
are directed specifically at members of HECs. Each chapter includes
learning objectives, case presentations, and discussion questions
to facilitate committee conversation.
