Ethics lies at the heart of healthcare. For patients who are at the end-of-life and their families, it is important for healthcare professionals to apply ethical principles in order to make decisions in their best interest. Recognising this, the course will focus on the theme of “Decision-Making for the Complex, the Frail and the Vulnerable”.

Please refer to the brochure here.

In this course, participants will engage in discussions based on case vignettes commonly found in hospital settings, including intensive care units and general wards in the medical and surgical disciplines. By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Recognize fundamental ethical principles involved in decision-making for end-of-life care of complex, frail, and vulnerable patients.
  • Explain the prevalent ethical dilemmas encountered in end-of-life care decision-making.
  • Apply appropriate tools to analyze the ethical challenges commonly faced in end-of-life care decision-making.

Health professionals, including doctors, registered nurses, advanced practice nurses, psychosocial staff, allied health professionals, and senior management, who care for patients at the end of life
