摘要
The doctor has a responsibility to develop and maintain an effective approach to ethical decision making and the skills to implement the correct moral action. At the heart of this process is the experience and knowledge of particular conditions and their outcomes, alongside excellence in communication skills and working with colleagues. © Royal College of Physicians, 2010.
