The ABN’s June webinar will discuss the challenges a healthcare team faces when responding to requests for potentially inappropriate treatments and will examine diverse pathways to manage these ethical dilemmas. They will consider how core ethical principles (autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice) are weighed against each other in the context of a case that has futility and public health implications and a case with futility and a terminal diagnosis. The discussion will unpack the differences between futile and potentially inappropriate treatment to identify how to develop potential action plans to use in related situations.
