Sinopsis
All manner of medical practitioners have had their scruples dissected ad infinitum. In spite of the attention paid to medical ethics and bioethics, little has been paid to the ethical roles and responsibilities of those who are ultimately in charge of hospital governance: hospital trustees.
Deriving from a Hastings Center research project involving meetings with a national task force of experts and extensive interviews with 98 nonprofit hospital trustees and CEOs over a two-year period, The Ethics of Hospital Trustees shows that the decisions made by these often overlooked members of the health community do raise important ethical issues, and that ethical dimensions of trustee service should be more explicitly recognized and discussed.
Practical as well as theoretical, The Ethics of Hospital Trustees uncovers four basic principles: 1. Fidelity to mission; 2. Service to patients; 3. Service to the community; and 4. Institutional stewardship. In delineating the extremely important functions of hospital trustees, from patient safety to financial responsibility, the contributors outline not only how hospital trustees do perform-they give a fresh understanding to how they should perform as well.

Reseña del editor
Despite the bioethics explosion little attention has been paid to the ethical roles and responsibilities of those who are ultimately in charge of hospital governance. Traditional legal frameworks and paradigmatic understandings of the role of trustees no longer suffice as guides to ethical responsible accountability and conduct. The goal of this book is to show that the decisions made by hospital trustees and the actions of hospital boards do raise important ethical issues, and that ethical dimensions of trustee service should be more explicitly recognized and discussed. The essays included here are based on a Hastings Center research project involving extensive interviews and group meetings with 98 nonprofit hospital trustees and CEOs over a two-year period. What emerged from these interactions were four principles of hospital trusteeship: 1. Fidelity to mission; 2. Service to patients; 3. Service to the community; 4. Institutional stewardship. These principles guide the thinking of the contributors, and represent the book's scholarly contribution to the field. The first part of the book offers a philosophical and theoretical framework for understanding the four principles; the second part of the book is more practical, offering readers empirical data on how hospital trustees actually perform--and should perform--their duties. These latter chapters address such issues as money and mission, religious issues in Catholic hospitals, the role of ethics committees, and patient safety.
