Training in Ethics Consultation: A Model for Physician Assistant Programs

As there is no consensus among PA programs about how these requirements should be met, programs develop individual curricula to address this important area of instruction. An introduction to ethical principles and theories may be successfully taught in a classroom setting, but this may not be the optimal method to provide instruction in the skills needed to identify and address ethical dilemmas in clinical practice. This article describes an innovative and experiential training performed for Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) members at Stony Brook Medicine, which can be used successfully at other PA programs in the education of PA students.
