This pioneering text extracts the concepts of ethics from philosophy and applies these principles to decision making in health care. Ethics in Health Administration: A Practical Approach for Decision Makers has a practical orientation aided by many case examples. The experienced author has developed a model that fosters an understanding of principles of ethics while relating them to a process for decision making. Contents of this book include: Foundations for Ethics Theories of Ethics Autonomy Non-Maleficience and Beneficence Justice External Influences on Ethics Quis Custodiet ispos Custodes?

(Summary and Future Trends) Ethics in Health Administration: A Practical Approach for Decision Makers translates the principles and practice of ethics into usable information for application to the real world of health care administration.

Fictional cases based on real world events help to emphasize chapter content and make it interesting for the learner. Eileen E.
