2022 Carol Carfang Nursing and Healthcare Ethics Conference
Healthcare ethical dilemmas are rarely black and white. The gray area, where different perspectives intersect, is where difficult questions arise. What can we do as healthcare professionals to have more clarity in these unsure situations?
About the Conference
Advancing ethical practice in healthcare requires grappling with difficult, often complex ethical problems and dilemmas. In this new forum, a diverse group of ethicists, philosophers, nurses, and other healthcare professionals will meet to address contemporary ethical issues in healthcare, and will discuss solutions to the most challenging problems for ethical practice and policy.
The 2022 conference will take place March 2 - 4, 2022, at the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort and Spa in Clearwater Beach, Florida.
Endorsed by the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities, the Carol Carfang Nursing & Healthcare Ethics Conference includes speakers, panels, and presentations, as well as receptions and other opportunities to meet, greet, and discuss with a wide array of professionals interested in healthcare ethics.
