Required reading for all learners: Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes
Ethical dilemmas abound in critical care, such as considering whether a patient is too old to receive a heart transplant, if a patient who is actively abusing substances should receive dialysis, whether children should be allowed to have bariatric surgery, and deciding which COVID patient will be given the last ventilator. These are all examples we face in modern healthcare. Join us as we walk through these and other case studies of ethical dilemmas and discuss considerations involved and frameworks to aid in decision-making.Learners must complete the entire activity and the associated evaluation AND read Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes.
