Making decisions about your healthcare or a loved one’s healthcare can be difficult at times. Assistance is provided to you and your family in understanding what you are facing with your medical care needs. The 网上买球软件 Medical Center 伦理委员会 is available to patients, their families and staff when decisions about healthcare choices are difficult to make. The purpose of the committee is to provide a forum for communication between patients/families and healthcare providers.
The committee is comprised of physicians, 护士, 药剂师, 社会工作者, 牧师, 病人的倡导者, community members and others. These individuals assist with understanding complex medical situations and the healthcare interventions being considered. The committee makes recommendations to the treatment team, 病人及家属, which may assist in developing the patient’s further plan of care. 实践标准, 道德, and legal requirements are discussed, as the committee focuses on the goal of “doing what’s best for the patient”.
Some examples of patient care situations brought to the 伦理委员会 for assistance with decision-making include, but are not limited to:
- Patient with advanced dementia, unable to communicate or eat food by mouth for whom the option of placing a feeding tube is being discussed.
