Batch Ethics class with Dato Siva

Dear all,

We will be having a batch ethics class on the 10th of June 2011 from 2.30 PM-3.30 PM. Location is to be confirmed.

It will be a case based discussion so please find example of cases in library books/Internet, preferably local cases, for us to discuss. A small PowerPoint presentation on the case itself can be made.

Posting - Ethical Topic

  1. PaediatricsBeneficence
  2. Obstetrics - Autonomy
  3. Psychiatry - Social Justice
  4. OrthopaedicsNon-maleficence
Your case does not have to correspond with your current posting (ie. just because you are in obstetrics you don't have to find a case concerning social justice in obstetrics, it can be social justice in any field of medicine).
    Attendance is compulsory for all and will be taken.

    We need to:
    1) Recognise what the ethical issue is in the case
    2) Discuss how to resolve it

    Loads of love and cheers,
    Zia
