What happens when the law dictates medical decisions; medical practice appears to run outside the law, or the ethics of the situation suggest yet another response besides those predicted by either medicine or the law? Join our faculty to discuss specific cases that overlap the boundaries of medicine, law, and ethics and gain greater insight into the complexity of the decision-making process.

Learning Objectives:
Analyze the nature of how medicine, law, and ethics interact.
Underline the value of incorporating the perspectives of law and ethics in complex medical decisions.
Summarize resources available in your organization that could provide support with complex medical decisions.
