  • Title: Exploring the relationship between ethics committees and the wound care clinician.
    Author: Gallagher SM.
    Journal: Ostomy Wound Manage; 1998 Mar; 44(3):20-2, 24. PubMed ID: 9626004.
    Abstract:
    Ethics Committees have gained increasing popularity since the mid-1970s. This is likely due to the recognized need to more openly discuss the legal and ethical issues of clinicians and their patients. Wound care clinicians play an important role in the interdisciplinary care of the patient. The typical framework of a hospital-based Ethics Committee is described, Ethics Committees as a resource to the wound care clinician is presented, and the role of the wound care clinician as a consultant to the Ethics Committee, from an interdisciplinary perspective, is illustrated.
