Overview

Healthcare professionals, paticnts, and their surrogates are confronted with situations when it is difficult to decide the right or best moral course of action in the clinical care of patients. The difficulty in resolving such situations leads to moral conflicts, which need to be resolved for the optimal care of patients.
