Clinical Ethics
The Clinical Ethics network was established to foster collaboration between clinicians working in child health in matters regarding clinical ethics. This includes established clinical ethics services and individual practitioners considering clinical ethics in their practice.
The network meets five times a year for presentations on paediatric-specific ethical issues and case-based, community of practice style discussion.
Chair: Prof John Massie (Children’s Bioethics Centre – Royal Children’s Hospital VIC) & Prof Lynn Gillam (Children’s Bioethics Centre – Royal Children’s Hospital VIC)
