Medical ethics is a system of moral principles that apply values to
the practice of clinical medicine and in scientific research.
Medical ethics allow for people, regardless of background, to be
guaranteed quality and principled care. It is based on a set of
values that professionals can refer to in the case of any confusion
or conflict. These values include the respect for autonomy,
non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice. These tenets allow
doctors, care providers, and families to create a treatment plan
and work towards the same common goal without any conflict.
Succeeding in the healthcare field means more than just making a
diagnosis and writing a prescription. Healthcare professionals are
responsible for convincing patients and their family members of the
best course of action and treatments to follow, while knowing how
to make the right moral and ethical choices. Ethical teaching
should be an active part of training and should be taught in four
division: basic ethics, clinical ethics, legal principles related
to ethics and the ethics of research and affiliation. This book is
a reference guide for physicians, healthcare providers and
administrative staff. It looks at the ethical problems they face
every day, gives the background and the ethical problem and then
provides practical advice which can be easily implemented. This
book provides the knowledge needed to understand who has the right
to healthcare, the justice of clinical practice, what autonomy
means for a patient giving consent, who is going to make any
surrogate decisions and more.
