Course overview
Ethical values are essential for any healthcare professional. Ethics are moral principles that govern how a person or a group will behave or conduct themselves. The focus pertains to right and wrong actions and encompasses the decision-making process of determining the ultimate consequences of those actions. To practice competently and with integrity, nurses must have regulation and guidance within the profession, like all healthcare professionals.
This short learning programme has been developed by industry experts to equip nurses at all levels, who have their own set of personal ethics and morals, to recognise dilemmas in healthcare, make value-based judgements and decisions while keeping within the laws that govern them.
