The practice of ethical decision-making in the field of healthcare critically needs the astute and adept skills of moral reasoning in the midst of complex options and choices in the 21st century. Len Weber is applying his giftedness to these challenges in the Detroit area.
When Len replied to our class reunion correspondence this past February, he wrote the following:
"Thank you for the Class of 68 letter. I will not be able to join you this year.
I am working full time (the Ethicist for a couple major hospitals) and have
already scheduled my limited time off.
Thank you for keeping me on the list."
Having worked as a clinical social worker in acute healthcare, I personally encountered families staring at confusing and troubling courses of action with their acute healthcare team in behalf of the well-being of a loved one.
