Dealing with doctors’ dilemmas T
he GMC has updated its Good Medical Practice in Action website with a brand
new set of scenarios targeting the ethical dilemmas that doctors find the most trickiest to deal with.
326 doctors took part in an online BMJ poll commissioned earlier this year, voting on the situations they felt most worried about in their career. ‘Knowing when it’s in the public’s interest to breach patient confidentiality’ came out on top and so all three scenarios of one of the new case studies focus on different aspects of this issue.
Dr Rosemary Leonard, one of the UK’s best-known GPs has helped create realistic medical and ethical online scenarios by providing advice on how doctors should use GMC guidance to deal
with these complex dilemmas. Two of the case studies contain scenarios which aim to help doctors and patients understand better the new GMC guidance on end of life care, which came into effect on 1 July.
These look at difficult issues such as talking to a dying patient about whether to attempt CPR; what to do when there is a dispute between relatives regarding the care their father should receive; and the steps to take if a doctor has a conscientious objection to withdrawing treatment.
Good Medical Practice in Action launched with just twelve scenarios in 2008. Two years later and it has grown to accommodate 60 scenarios and has received over 40,000 visits from doctors, medical students and members of the public.
