Ethics Committees at Phoebe Ministries Health Care
Communities Phoebe Ministries is committed to providing
an ethical environment for health care education and
decision-making. We value the autonomy of our residents
and want to support them in making decisions about their
health care options.
Each of the health care communities maintains an Ethics
Committee. Phoebe Ministries values the dialogue among
staff, trustees, community members, and residents and
their families concerning health care decisions.
The Ethics Committees provide education, consultation,
and support to residents and families who are dealing
with difficult health care decisions, advance directives,
or other matters.
Our committees include key staff, community members,
chaplains, lawyers, ethicists, social workers, physicians,
and trustee representatives.
Their goal is to provide a place where open, honest
communication may occur that keeps the best interests
of the residents and their values, needs, and directives
at the forefront.
