The Partners in Bleeding Disorders Education Program has relaunched an ethics-related educational activity for healthcare providers at hemophilia treatment centers (HTCs).
The activity, “Is that OK?: Ethical Dilemmas in our Community,” aims to enable the learner to build a solid knowledge base on the history, theories, disciplines and concepts related to ethics in order to accurately identify and address ethical dilemmas that arise in patient care. The target audience includes physicians, nurses, physical therapists, and social workers; plus members of the bleeding disorder community interested in learning more about the topic of ethics. This activity will be available until January 18, 2018.
Established in 1996, the Partners Program promotes excellence in care through education created by and for the federally recognized HTC Network and providers from a variety of disciplines that serve patients with bleeding and other coagulation disorders. The program is a collaborative initiative of the Indiana Hemophilia & Thrombosis Center, the NHF Ethics Working Group and the Hemophilia Foundation of Michigan. Funding to support the Partners in Bleeding Disorders Education Program is provided through an unrestricted educational grant from Shire.
