After harm: truth-telling, apology, repair, and forgiveness in healthcare

On March 6, at 10:15 AM, Nancy Berlinger will talk about how doing harm in a healing role raises profound moral and ethical concerns for physicians and other health care professionals and for the organizations in which they work. This lecture explores error, forgiveness, harm, and safety in health care work, drawing on health care ethics, theological perspectives, and personal narratives.
