Ethical Challenges and Opportunities in Healthcare Volunteer Programs

What happens when a volunteer's personal beliefs conflict with the needs, choices or identity of the person they are serving? In Ethics, Lori Showalter explores this issue from the lens of healthcare volunteers in a video presentation that addresses the ethical challenges and opportunities facing healthcare volunteer programs worldwide. Here, Showalter, a recognized leader in Volunteer Engagement and healthcare volunteer management, offers practical approaches for building volunteer cultures where belonging, accountability and patient-centered service can coexist. She examines how volunteer leaders can equip volunteers to uphold the highest standards of ethical care while supporting individuals from every community and walk of life.
