Suffering, compassion and 'doing good medical ethics'
Journal of Medical Ethics 41 (1):87-90 (2015)
Abstract
‘Doing good medical ethics’ involves attending to both the biomedical and existential aspects of illness. For this, we need to bring in a phenomenological perspective to the clinical encounter, adopt a virtue-based ethic and resolve to re-evaluate the goals of medicine, in particular the alleviation of suffering and the role of compassion in everyday ethics.Other Versions
