Medical Ethics
Have you ever needed to make a difficult decision about the health care services to be received by you or a loved one? It's a situation no one needs to face alone.
Providence Alaska's Medical Ethics Program serves as a resource for patients, family members and physicians when health care decision-making becomes a challenge. The Program is a free decision-making resource for patients, family members, physicians and staff
Members of Providence's Medical Ethics Program are a multidisciplinary group of certified ethicists, medical and non-medical staff, and members of the clergy and community who have been trained to help address ethical dilemmas encountered in the care of patients.
Advance Directives
