内容説明

Accountability has become a key issue in the provision of health care, with legal, ethical and moral considerations gaining greater prominence than ever before. This book identifies aspects of accountability in health care provision, adopting a provocative question-answer approach to issues such as whistle blowing, disciplinary procedures, interprofessional relations, secrecy, confidentiality, and the adequacy of statutory bodies and current British law. The issues are considered from a variety of view points to give the text a broad appeal.
