In this talk, Mike will look back at transformative digital changes of the past 10 years, explores what’s on the horizon, and considers how we might help shape the future of healthcare technology to benefit both patients and the people looking after them. Along the way, he’ll ask how our roles as clinicians might need to evolve in the new digital world.
In this Grand Rounds, we bring an ethical lens to the issue of how to respond to aggressive behaviour by parents towards staff. This is an issue that is receiving growing attention in the community, and within the hospital from a range of perspectives. Thinking about this issue in ethical terms brings to the forefront the potentially competing values that are stake and helps to explain why these decisions are complex and nuanced. We will consider some case scenarios, offer some practical suggestions to assist decision-making and have plenty of time for discussion.
