Virtue ethics
63
ways of establishing a value hierarchy in ethical decisions
ETHICAL SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT (Consequentialism, Deontology, Virtue ethics)
64
bases decisions on the consequences or outcomes of a given act

65
other name for Consequentialism
Teleology
66
evaluates the good of an activity by assessing whether immediate harm is balanced with future benefit
Consequentialism

Deontology

opposite of teleology
Deontology
70
examines the significance of actions themselves
Deontology

Paternal or Priestly Model
79
provider thinks he or she knows what is best for patients
Paternal or Priestly Model
80

Contractual Model
86

| patient and health care provider, an agreement often grounded in traditional values and goals
Covenantal Model
