General Practice Manuals

Medicine, law, and social values are not static. Re-examining the ethical views of medicine and their application in new circumstances is an essential exercise. Ethics Manual covers emerging issues in medical ethics and revisits older ones that are still very relevant. It reflects on many of the ethical tensions in medicine and attempts to shed light on how existing principles extend to emerging concerns. In addition, by reiterating ethical principles that have provided guidance in resolving past ethical problems, the Manual may help physicians avert future problems. The Manual is not a substitute for the experience and integrity of individual physicians, but it may serve as a reminder of the shared duties of the medical profession. Typically, the entry point into the health care system is a primary care practitioner (also primary care physician [PCP]/ general doctor/family doctor), usually a doctor but sometimes a nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant. The primary care practitioner provides general medical care and is responsible for overall care, including the coordination of medical specialists and supportive care.
