Guest 1234 Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 The CMAJ site has a good section for medical ethics. You can find it at the address www.cma.ca/cmaj. Once you get there, click on "selected series" on the left hand side and this will lead you to bioethics for clinicians. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 Here's a smoking link, courtesy of the UBC Faculty of Ethics. If you poke around a bit, you'll discover links to sites for many/all of the major ethical dilemnas in health care, along with links to a ridiculous number of ethics organizations: Canadian, American and other. You could literally spend months exploring all of the content available here. www.ethics.ubc.ca/resources/biomed/ Ian UBC, Med 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 Here's another medical ethics website, courtesy of the American Medical Association: www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/2732.html The highlight of this website is the "Virtual Mentor" section, which has a number of sample ethical cases published by physicians. It can be accessed through the above URL, or can be reached directly here: www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/3040.html Ian UBC, Med 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aneliz Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 I found this site to be a good resource when I took a couple of bio-ethics courses. www.utoronto.ca/jcb/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted December 21, 2001 Report Share Posted December 21, 2001 Here's yet another biomed ethics website, appropriately named: www.medicalethics.ca/ Ian UBC, Med 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JD Posted March 3, 2002 Report Share Posted March 3, 2002 Hey, these sites are good... Are there any books you guys would recommend in addition to these websites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted March 4, 2002 Report Share Posted March 4, 2002 There's a book written by Dr. Eike Kluge, who's the chair of UVic's Philosophy department, and a former chair of a CMA committee on ethics. I can't remember the name at the moment, but there's some good articles within that books dealing with the standard ethical questions like abortions, euthanasia, access to medical records, sterilization of the mentally handicapped, etc. You can probably find it if you searched on www.google.com Ian UBC, Med 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hello Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Good for you Laura. I was not able to see any of your original comments so I don't know if they were offensive. However, it seems people on this site are trying too hard to be perfect and make good impressions. I would prefer a doctor who is genuine and true to himself. It sounds like Laura was giving her opinion...which I thought was the idea of this forum. Endless banter about morality is silly we all know what is right and wrong.

Guest bluesky125 Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 You can also try reading Doing Right by Philip C Hebert. My friend said it is a very good book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UWOMED2005 Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 I'll back that up - it is a great book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
