Produktinformationen zu „Values Based Health Care “
In Values-Based Health Care, celebrated ethics scholar David Seedhouse presents a ground-breaking practical approach to ethical decision-making in health care, based on the position that decisions must be based on both evidence and values. The book makes a compelling case for honesty in health care planning and clearly outlines the personal and social-and therefore ethical-imperatives of decision-making. Seedhouse reviews the most common decision-making approaches-from the most quantitative to the most qualitative-and explains, with examples, how each may be used to make effective, practical decisions.
Klappentext zu „Values Based Health Care “
We have lost sight of the vital symmetry between values and evidence. Values lay behind absolutely everything we do, yet we allow technical decision-making to dominate every social sphere, as if only 'the evidence' really matters.In this extraordinarily original and compelling book, David Seedhouse advocates values-based decision-making as a much-needed means of restoring humane balance to social planning, and explains the innovative use of information technology to turn values into evidence.The potential of values-based decision-making is huge and exciting. The final chapter of this seminal work points the way to a democratic future in which everyone's values can be seen and heard, regardless of technical knowledge or social status.Values Based Decision-Making mostly uses examples drawn from the health field. Like David Seedhouse's many other books, it will be of considerable interest to all health professionals. But values-based decision-making reaches into every arena of humanproblem-solving, and should therefore be read by everyone who makes plans on behalf of other people.
