Each 45-minute session will examine the implications of a specific critical issue in clinical and organizational ethics in the context of Catholic Social Teaching and the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services (ERDs).

Emerging Topics in Catholic Health Care Ethics Series 4, Session 10 — Conscience and Catholic Health

Join us for a webinar on the important role of conscience in Catholic health care. We'll explore how conscience, rooted in the Catholic moral tradition, helps health care professionals make ethical decisions that respect human dignity, protect life, and stay true to Church teachings. Learn how conscience shapes personal choices and policies in today’s complex medical world.
