Abstract
Ethical dilemma in Bioethics education: Interns’ personal experience narratives
Highlights
Bioethics is a relatively new term coined by a biochemist, Van Rensselaer Potter, in 1970 in an endeavour to draw attention to the fact that the rapid advances in science had proceeded without due attention being paid to values
Teaching Bioethics in classrooms does not serve the purpose unless ethics in real life situations is actively discussed and practiced during the training of medical students
Educational experiences of the students and Interns in demonstrating knowledge, skills, and attitudes in professionalism and ethics are found to be insufficient to meet the real life ethical challenges experienced in actual practice [7]
Summary
Bioethics is a relatively new term coined by a biochemist, Van Rensselaer Potter, in 1970 in an endeavour to draw attention to the fact that the rapid advances in science had proceeded without due attention being paid to values. Medical practice includes a moral component, in the form of duty to his or her patient or in clinical decision-making. There has to be a focus on classical dilemmas and a textbook knowledge of principles is yielding its previous dominance to permit a more detailed examination of ethical behavior in actual practice in medicine [5].
