OVERVIEW
Requests for treatment that are deemed medically inappropriate, often referred to as requests or demands for "futile treatment," constitute one of the most intractable ethical challenges in the care of patients. Various attempts to address the issue go back well over 20 years, yet it seems as if very little progress has been made in preventing, reducing, or successfully resolving these situations.
This webinar will describe the efforts of SSM Health Care in St. Louis
Objectives
1. Identify three generations of efforts to deal with "medical futility."
2. Explain SSM Health Care's evolution in its attempts to address requests for medically inappropriate treatment.
3. Describe SSM Health Care's pilot program, tools and initial results.
Who Should Participate
Ethicists, mission leaders, physicians, clinical leaders, nursing managers, CEOs, executive teams, sponsors, ethics committees and pastoral care.
