with Michael Erdek, MD and Mark Hughes, MD from Johns Hopkins University

An ethical code of conduct is fundamental to making moral clinical decisions and upholding professional integrity. Navigating ethical dilemmas in the clinical setting can be challenging, as it requires a delicate balance between clinical knowledge and moral judgment, often under pressure.

This course will equip you with a thorough understanding of the core principles of clinical ethics, and teach you practical skills for ethical decision-making in real-world healthcare scenarios. Michael Erdek, MD (the Director of Pain Medicine for the R.J. Zuckerberg Cancer Center at Northwell Health in New York), and Mark Hughes, MD (Johns Hopkins University) will walk you through all key topics including medical errors, organ donations, confidentiality, resource allocation, and research ethics.

The combination of Video Lessons with interactive quiz questions, downloadable study materials, and a USMLE-style Qbank makes it easy to understand and retain the topics. By the end of this course, you will be confident in guiding your clinical decisions with the best interests of your patients and the highest standards of medical practice.

FAQs

What are clinical ethics?

The study of clinical ethics analyzes the role of ethics within healthcare. Clinical ethics provide a common framework for clinicians.

What are the four pillars of medical ethics?

The core principles of clinical ethics include autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice. Every patient gives different value to these principles and clinicians should account for these preferences as they take care of patients. Additionally, clinicians must prioritize fair and moral decision-making that respects the cultural and religious norms of their patients.
