The Western Health Ethics Consultation Service can support individuals in working through ethical issues. This service is available for patients, residents, families, staff, or anyone who needs help in making ethical decisions about health care. The discussion is led by an ethics team who meet to talk about the ethical issue.
If you are unsure if you need an ethics consultation, you can use the Ethics Screening Tool (see link below), to help you decide. Once your issue is simplified, you can request an ethics consultation, by filling out the Request for an Ethics Consultation Form, (see link below) and sending it to the contact person below:
