Practical Guide to Clinical Ethics Support
Clinical ethics support describes the provision of advice and support on ethical issues arising from clinical practice and patient care within a healthcare organisation.
Initially, models of clinical ethics support focused on provision of advice to health professionals working in hospitals, usually through a hospital ethics committee or an individual ethicist. More recently, models of clinical ethics support have developed to include support for other groups within the organisation, specifically patients and managers, and to provide support across institutions, for example, area-wide ethics committees supporting primary and secondary care Trusts.
