Catholic Bioethics and Conscientious Objection: Implementing Catholic Directives within Secular Healthcare
Conscientious objection can be difficult to navigate. When should a person violate their own values at the request of another? It is acceptable for a healthcare provider to refuse specific interventions/medications if they can refer to another participating provider? When does referral become culpability?
In this webinar, speakers Jerry Wilmes, MD, Mosaic Life Care, and Ryan Pferdehirt, D. Bioethics, HEC-C, Center for Practical Bioethics, explore religious objections, focusing specifically on Catholic medical ethics, and suggest strategies and perspectives for implementing religious convictions in a secular world.
