An ethics casebook for hospitals : practical approaches to everyday ethics consultations / Mark G. Kuczewski, Rosa Lynn B. Pinkus, Katherine Wasson. by Kuczewski, Mark G., author., Pinkus, Rosa Lynn B., author., Wasson, Katherine, author. Washington, DC : Georgetown University Press, [2018] Description:  xviii, 213 pages ; 23 cm Edition:  Second edition. Contents:  Consent and capacity -- End of life decision making -- Decision making for minors -- Organizational ethics. Notes:  Originally published in 1999, this classic textbook includes twenty-six cases with commentary and bibliographic resources designed especially for medical students and the training of ethics consultants. The majority of the cases reflect the day-to-day moral struggles within the walls of hospitals typically described as community hospitals; as a result, the cases do not focus on esoteric, high-tech dilemmas--viz., genetic engineering or experimental protocols--but rather on fundamental problems that are pervasive in basic healthcare delivery in the United States: where to send a frail, elderly patient who refuses to go to a nursing home; what role the family should play in making a treatment decision; what a hospital should do when it is getting stuck with too many unpaid bills. This thoroughly revised and updated second edition includes thirteen new cases, five of which are designated as "skill builder" cases aimed specifically for those participants in the Neiswanger Institute for Bioethics' web-based instructional program. This edition has also been restructured for teachability, and will feature reformatted and revised commentaries.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Peosta Library Circulation Stacks 174.2 Kuc 2018 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
