Ethics of Health Care: A Guide for Clinical Practice

This text is a wonderful presentation of how to help prepare to encounter difficult choices and decisions in the health care field. Highly recommended.

This is an excellent introduction to health care ethics. Covers theory and principles and ethical decision-making in the first several chapters and the major issues in health care in the remaining chapters. The writers don't bog down in discussing these issues as do some current texts in bioethics. Very readable. Does not have cases so if one uses this for instruction a book with a collection of cases is needed (i.e. Cases Studies in Allied Health Ethics by Veatch and Flack).
