About this item

Up to date with current information on the latest health care regulations and technology, APPLIED LAW AND ETHICS IN HEALTH CARE, First Edition, prepares you to navigate the legal and ethical dilemmas you may face as a health care professional working in a medical environment. Beginning with an overview of business-related issues and the court system, the text proceeds to cover the standard of care, employment, criminal and tortious acts, contractual issues, negligence, medical malpractice and other important matters of law. The second half of the text delves into the ethical concerns present in medical practices, including patient confidentiality, health records, professional ethics and issues associated with patient births and deaths. A practical resource for both novices and seasoned professionals, the text features real-life cases and news stories to ground you in relevant laws and ethical issues, along with activities to hone your own critical-thinking and decision-making skills. This thoughtful, thorough guide can help you understand your legal and ethical obligations, when to seek legal advice, how to work with the legal profession and how to protect yourself and your future employers from medical malpractice and other legal risks.
