Over, Under, Around and Around:
Navigating High-Stakes Medical Decisions for People with Serious Mental Illness
This talk will explore the ethically, medically, socially, and emotionally complex calculus at play in determining appropriate care plans for people with acute medical illness and serious mental illness. We will evaluate situations that call into question the boundaries between autonomy and paternalism, and challenge ourselves to consider what we owe to patients who cannot fit neatly into the frameworks that structure our “best practices.”
This lecture is open to the public and will be held in the Searle Seminar Room in the Lurie Research Building (303 E Superior St), Chicago Campus. For those outside the Chicago area and anyone who would prefer to attend remotely, a Zoom option is also available.
Only Zoom attendees are required to register
