  • Title: Ethics in allied health education: state of the art.
    Author: Purtilo RB.
    Journal: J Allied Health; 1983 Aug; 12(3):210-20. PubMed ID: 6630024.
    Abstract:
    This article addresses three aspects of the "state of the art" of ethics in allied health education. The first section reviews four types of concerns legitimately voiced by allied health educators as they try to ascertain the appropriate place of ethics in their curricula. The second part discusses the discipline of ethics itself, highlighting those areas of particular relevance to allied health professionals. In the last section three arguments are presented in favor of incorporating a substantial focus on ethics into the formal preparation of allied health students. The article emphasizes the clinical relevance of ethical decision making.
