Program Overview
Nowhere is healthcare ethics more relevant than the difficult decisions taken during palliative care. For example, who should make medical decisions for patients who are too ill to decide for themselves? What should the response be to patients who refuse treatments likely to be beneficial or demand treatments not likely to be?
The reality of these situations is rarely straight forward, especially when decision-making not only affects patients and their loved ones, but also a large, interdisciplinary support team, which can include physicians, nurses, occupational and physical therapists, psychologists, social workers, chaplains, and dietitians. Care itself can also be provided in a variety of contexts, including in hospice, hospitals, and home settings. Since multiple values such as respect for autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice lie at the heart of care giving decisions, it’s no surprise that conflict can arise.
Keele is a pioneer of medical ethics and law education: our MA Medical Ethics and Palliative Care remains the only programme of its kind in the UK which specialises in palliative care and end-of-life medical ethics.
The course aims to improve your ability to examine health care contexts, identify and consider the moral issues that healthcare professionals may face, then weigh up and, if need be, effectively present and communicate alternative scenarios.
