Start your online clinical ethics class
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 teach you to identify and analyze ethical issues in clinical practice, and develop strategies for addressing them. 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 key topics of clinical ethics, including patient autonomy, informed consent, and end-of-life care. You will develop skills in communication, collaboration, and advocacy, and learn how to navigate complex ethical dilemmas and legal issues.
An adaptive learning algorithm, downloadable Cheat Sheets, and a NCLEX-style Qbank are part of the learning platform, boosting retention and understanding. By the end of the course, you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to approach ethical decision-making in clinical practice with confidence and competence.
