Core Ethics for Health Professionals: Principles, Issues, and Compliance

By Robert F Phalen and Phalen

Book Overview

A timely overview of ethics, emphasizing applications to biomedical researchers, health providers, and administrators

There are no simple rules to guide ethical conduct in daily practice, health professionals must have a basic understanding of several topics including ethical theories; ethical scandals; laws, regulations, and institutional policies; and public perceptions. This book can be used for self-study, for classroom instruction, and as a refresher and update by practicing health professionals. The chapters have learning objectives, focused content, a summary of important points, a quiz, and a list of key references. Although the book is arranged in a logical order, each chapter may be studied independently.
