Revitalizing Health Care Ethics
摘要
We begin this concluding chapter by explaining just what we mean by revitalizing health care ethics. We see clinical ethics as embodied in clinicians and as maintained through the socio-institutional processes of the interpretive communities that define each particular field of health care. We stress the importance of respecting and building upon the working moral frameworks and action frameworks that all clinicians possess at the outset of their professional education. Finally, we emphasize the role of the touchstones for learning and touchstone questions as a foundation for trainees’ and clinicians’ lifelong learning and ongoing professional development.
