Beskrivelse
Summary:As Hong Kong moves toward a “super-aged society,” population ageing has heightened public expectations for local healthcare policies and systems. Ensuring sustainability, however, requires not only comprehensive resource planning and quality services but also serious engagement with the ethical issues underlying the system. This book examines ethical challenges from two levels: healthcare institutions and the professional conduct of medical staff. Through analysis of healthcare financing options, allocation of resources, the balance between medical professionalism and patient rights, end-of-life decisions, neonatal genetic screening, and medical error, it probes current difficulties and proposes solutions to improve the system and enhance professionalism and service quality for sustainable social development. Including essays by over a dozen medical professionals and public policy scholars, the book synthesizes stakeholder experiences to resonate with practitioners and guide readers to reflect on pressing medical issues.
