The role of compassion in ethical frameworks and medical practice
Clinical Ethics 16 (4):302-306 (2021)
Abstract
Medicine has made great strides with advances in technology and outcomes. However, compassion is an element that often is missing from medical care and ethics. The paper discusses why compassion is the ideal physician and why it is important to medicine. The benefit of compassion in biomedical ethics by exploring three ethical frameworks is also explored. Compassion is an important concept that has a place in both medical care and ethical practice.Other Versions
