This major new work updates and significantly expands The Hastings Center's 1987 Guidelines on the Termination of Life-Sustaining Treatment and Care of the Dying. Like its predecessor, this second edition will shape the ethical and legal framework for decision-making on treatment and end-of-life care in the United States.
These Guidelines incorporate research and innovation in clinical care, law, and policy. They are written for physicians, nurses, and other health care professionals and are structured for easy reference in difficult clinical situations. They support the work of clinical ethicists, ethics committee members, health lawyers, clinical educators, scholars, and policymakers. They include extensive practical recommendations.
