To keep pace in this rapidly changing arena, the new edition of this introductory text in clinical ethics carries forward an approach tested over time with clinicians, students in the health professions, and members of ethics committees. The new edition is admirably current with, and informed by, the extensive literature in clinical, ethical, and legal topics relevant to these problems. In many ways this text serves as an important model for creative work in bioethics. First, it is interdisciplinary and interprofessional, not merely multidisciplinary and multiprofessional. Members of different disciplines and professions talked, taught, and wrote with each other to develop clear and compelling ideas about clinical ethics. This text provides the fruits of their conversations. . . . In short, this book reflects an ideal approach to both teaching and scholarship in bioethics. From the Foreword, by James C. Childress, PhD

What are the basic principles of an ethical relationship? What does this mean for healthcare? According to Bergum and Dossetor, healthcare ethics is grounded in relationships. The authors invite readers to reflect on the many ways that relationships can and do influence ethical actions -- and outcomes -- and how they can be improved.

Practical Ethics for Students 4E

Arthur R. Derse

Delivering comprehensive and ethical patient-cenetered care is the goal of every nurse--and every nursing student. Practical Ethics for Nurses and Nursing Students is a concise and easy-to-use reference manual to assist nurses in achieving this practice goal. Although the manual addresses a broad spectrum of clinical situations, the challenge of patient communication underlies ever chapter. While evaluative strategies and therapeutic interventions frequently change, communication--with patients, their loved ones, and other members of the healthcare team--is a timeless and personal art. The concepts described in Practical Ethics for Nurses and Nursing Students are as important to patient care as any diagnostic or management technique. When a nurse or nursing student masters the art of communication with patients and has learned to identify and resolve ethical problems, she or he has acquired enduring, career-enhancing skills. Most importantly, she or he will provide better care to patients.
