Live, In-Person CME/CE Program for TEXAS Physicians, Nurses, and Allied Health Professionals

The objective of this program is to meet the STATE of TEXAS CME requirement for Ethics and familiarize health care professionals with the basic principles of medical ethics and illustrate how these fundamentals can be incorporated into today’s healthcare setting. Participants will be provided with techniques to help evaluate individual patient situations where ethical decision making is required. These easy-to-implement strategies are introduced by nationally renowned physician / speaker Arnold Mackles. Dr. Mackles has addressed medical audiences throughout the United States and his message is timely, effective, and his presentation style engaging and motivating.

Topics covered include:

• Principles of Medical Ethics
• Historical Medical Ethics Cases
• Applying Ethical Principles to Daily Practice / Patient Care
• Guidelines for Ethical Decision Making
• Provider’s Ethical Responsibilities
• Ethics, Technology and Confidentiality
• Ethical Issues for The Future

Dr. Mackles conducted a well presented and interesting lecture on the topic of Prevention of Medical Errors for our Medical Staff. The evaluations from our Medical Staff Members were very positive and the physicians gained better insight into techniques and methods for reducing / eliminating unnecessary medical errors. In the future, we would be glad to welcome him back to assist us in providing continuing education for our Medical Staff. Medical Error Prevention is an important subject and by having a physician who has” been there and done that” facilitate the presentation; it gives a much higher level of credibility to his peers. A strong program that I highly recommend.
