from Part II - The Most Vulnerable of Us
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 May 2025
In this chapter of Complex Ethics Consultations: Cases that Haunt Us, the author reviews four pediatrics cases, emphasizing the importance of honoring parental authority and encouraging greater investment in education to reduce bias and injustices in the clinical setting. Social and cultural identities and circumstances should be treated with more care and respect in the clinical realm, so that curiosity and empathy are front and center. The author specifies how equity and inclusion could have been enhanced in each case and provides a direction for future clinical ethics practice.
