  • Title: Teaching health care ethics: why we should teach nursing and medical students together.
    Author: Hanson S.
    Journal: Nurs Ethics; 2005 Mar; 12(2):167-76. PubMed ID: 15791786.
    Abstract:
    This article argues that teaching medical and nursing students health care ethics in an interdisciplinary setting is beneficial for them. Doing so produces an education that is theoretically more consistent with the goals of health care ethics, can help to reduce moral stress and burnout, and can improve patient care. Based on a literature review, theoretical arguments and individual observation, this article will show that the benefits of interdisciplinary education, specifically in ethics, outweigh the difficulties many schools may have in developing such courses.
