Practical Ethics in Ophthalmology (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Who remembers the dry rules of medical ethics posted by the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, and other official organizations? Perhaps you remember when made to during training, only to forget soon after.

In this book, Dr. Tom Harbin outlines the many reasons medical professionals should pay more attention to those forgotten principles.

This book discusses ethical issues of day-to-day importance, such as

• prescribing medications, recommending surgery, and adopting new procedures;

• communicating with patients and colleagues;

• dealing with personal problems such as substance abuse, disruptive behavior, and boundary issues;

• and
  managing personal and institutional obstacles to ethics.

Become a better doctor for patients and a better colleague to peers with renewed attention to--and respect for--medical ethics.
