Section Info: This course will take a community health perspective in introducing students to a wide range of issues in modern medical ethics. Special focus will be given to how we handle critical ethical issues in health care and how to resolve dilemmas. Particular attention will be given to case studies reviewing end of life decisions. All of us will participate in medical decision making in our lifetimes, as professionals, patients or as family members, so this class has the potential to be enormously influential. The objective of this class will be to empower students with a basic understanding of the forces that shape the medical decisions that they will encounter in their lives. It will address research ethics and ethical issues in clinical practice. This course will inform issues of practical, philosophical importance for all members of our society.
