Document Summary

Informed consent final exam notes: how do we explore the professional ethics, a answer one: (easy) not to expect a special domain for healthcare but follow the general framework for all professionals, problems, health care is special. Important: bioethical questions about professional behaviour cannot be redued to questions of justice: second answer (wrong): treat professional ethics like the bioethics of everyday life. Rely on informed reflection based in cd: but if you rely on cd it leaves us vulnerable to doctors and bioethicists imposing their views on us. Tyranny of the physicians: how do you consider pluralism, take frp as a starting point factor of reasonable pluralism.

Our ability to appeal to our rationale agencies without letting our feelings, inclinations have a say.
