What is Given: Forgiveness in Medical Ethics, Palliative Care, and Literature

Friday Chalk Talks are a weekly, live-audience, short-and-sweet, 20-30 minute presentation and discussion, for the entire multidisciplinary Palliative Care team (physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, pharmacists, and others). A grassroots project to share knowledge, experiences, and lessons learned with other Palliative Care specialists. Presentations are focused on smaller topics meant to spark further interest in a subject and provide listeners with pearls that may help impact their practice.

I appreciate your perspective here. Long time peds palliative care SW here, (and shout out to Kenyon! Class of 80... your liberal arts education is showing to good effect). And this topic just came up in a recent training our EPEC-Peds group was conducting, and the question of moral conflict when admin prohibits disclosure, and ethical imperative to tell the truth or acknowledge error experienced by the clinician. Moral injury can result. Consequences of barriers to this seeking of, or offering of forgiveness perhaps?
