Ethical Considerations in Geriatric Care
Ethical challenges are central to caring for older adults. This topic explores autonomy, informed consent, capacity assessments, resource allocation, and decision-making at the end of life. Ethical dilemmas related to treatment refusal, life-prolonging interventions, and balancing patient-centered care with clinical recommendations are discussed. Guidance on communication, family involvement, and establishing advanced care plans is provided to ensure dignity, respect, and ethical integrity in geriatric care.
