Clinical Ethics Consultation Service
What is Bioethics?
Bioethics is the analysis of ethical issues that arise in the health care setting. These are moral issues of health, life, and death related to patient care and treatment decision making. The concerns of bioethics are the well-being and dignity of the patient and matters of choice, rights, and responsibilities of the patient, the family, and the care giving team. Any matter relating to these issues is appropriate for a Bioethics consultation.
