  • Why Is Physician Assisted Suicide Wrong

    1168 Words  | 5 Pages

    Families may also take selfish actions by not wanting to continue paying the medical costs to keep the person alive because that money they are spending would eventually become their inheritance. Families and doctors may also feel regret from the assisted death because they may have been able to live through the disease or illness. An example from one of Dr. Jack Kevorkian's patients proved that a wrong diagnosis could make the use of euthanasia a huge mistake. One of his patients had “committed suicide” with his assistance, because she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. It was later discovered after an autopsy was completed on the patient, that she in fact did not have Multiple Sclerosis and if she would have had a second opinion done, she most likely would have made a completely different choice in dealing with her issue.

  • What Does Wrongful Life Mean

    469 Words  | 2 Pages

    To start this article off, what exactly do wrongful birth and wrongful life mean? Wrongful birth and wrongful life are negligence based tort claims brought against a doctor when a child is born with a severe significant disability or impairment that a doctor could or should have warned the parents about. A key difference between wrongful birth and wrongful life is who brings the lawsuit. In wrongful birth, the parents of the child bring a lawsuit on their own behalf seeking damages associated with rearing the child. On the contrary, in wrongful life cases the child who was born with the severe significant disability or impairment brings the lawsuit.

  • Dr Anna Pou Case Summary

    It It f It frustrates me what Dr. Anna Pou had to go through with the lawsuits of the Memorial Medical Center incident. As Healthcare professionals, being sued for making the rightful decision for the patient and the hospital is unjust. Healthcare professionals like Dr. Pou, have taken the Hippocratic oath, and one of the promises made within that oath is “first, do no harm”. Hospital’s should not be so quick to make such an important decision of pressing charges to their faculty; more trust should be placed in them. In addition, she made it clear her intentions were just to ‘‘help’’ patients ‘‘through their pain,’’ on national television.

    The Terri Schiavo case was a huge start of the “Right to Die” movement, the underlying cause of Schiavo’s collapse was never given a diagnosis. Consequentialist moral theories focus on how much good can result from an action. Non Consequentialist moral theories or Deontological theories, consider not the consequences of an action but whether they fulfill a duty. Some theories that can be used include utilitarianism, Kant’s ethics and natural law theory. Being aware of the case already, I believe there should be some sort of law that gives doctors to comply with the wishes of the patient if they are in a lot of distress.
