1. As a manager, how do you make sure this can happen? Further...how do you communicate ethical practice as a behavioral expectation and staff competency?
2. But, in providing benefit for the patient, is the MD in a position to create harm? Does this change how the MD must look at the situation? There is no right or wrong here...the MD first must clarify where the primary obligation is. Kant's categorical imperative can help clarify our thinking.Folks....Does the MD have a duty to negotiate a donation from an unwilling father, especially if it might cause harm to the family? Perhaps....what do you think?
3. Discuss the significance of common laws for the healthcare professional. Discuss what is meant by the term abandonment and describe ways that this claim can be avoided. What is a subpoena and who can accept it?
