Ethics : the heart of health care
David Seedhouse (Author)
"David Seedhouse provides a sound theoretical basis for practical ethical decision-making in medicine, health and nursing. He clarifies complex philosophical concepts in an easy to understand format, demonstrates how contemporary ethics and health care are inextricably linked and provides key tools and resources which students and professionals can apply to ethical decision-making in their everyday practice." "This popular text explores the use of the Ethical Grid and Rings of Uncertainty as essential practical tools in health care ethics and introduces the reader to web-based versions of David Seed house's ethical decision-support tools, known as the Values Exchange. Intended for all who work in health care or health studies - indeed for anyone with an interest in health issues - this is a highly original, innovative and accessible work."--Jacket
