As an aging population pushes the health care infrastructure beyond its capacity, the urgency for ethical treatment of these elderly patients has become a focal point of many in the health care profession. Intended for a UK readership, this book uses case studies to help guide trainees and junior medical staff members in their decision making processes concerning medical treatment of the elderly. Exploring such topics as resuscitation, patient religious beliefs, stroke management, and end of life decisions, the authors hold up these cases as examples of ethical decision making. The fourth edition incorporates the Equality Act of 2010, case law concerning nutrition and hydration, and updated guidelines for resuscitation from the British Medical Association and the Royal College of Nursing. Distributed in the US by Martin P. Hill Consulting. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
