Upending the Golden Rule - Supporting Patient Autonomy in End of Life Decisions and Planning
1 CEU - May be counted as Clinical or Ethics
Presenters: S.K. Chung, MSW, LICSW, APHSW-C & Florence Wright, MSW, LICSW, APHSW-C
Controversial options that allow patients to hasten death at the end of life, including voluntary stopping of eating and drinking (VSED), have created a greater arena for provider/clinician bias to emerge and impact patient autonomy. This presentation will review ethical questions surrounding VSED and will highlight the role of the palliative care social worker in supporting patients, families, and the care team in end-of-life planning and decision-making.
Learning Objectives
1. Describe a palliative care clinical social worker’s role in supporting and advocating for patients, families/caregivers, and palliative care teams in decision-making.
2. Identify ethical principles that support justification voluntarily stopping of eating and drinking within the setting of life-limiting illness.
3. Define, describe and reflect upon the use of Chochniov’s platinum rule as a standard for guiding advocacy for patient autonomy.
