Innovative Approach to the Ethics in Health Care Organizations: Health Staff Perspective

Ethics in health care services, especially for the health staff, has been an important topic of the quality improvement in health care organizations. It is argued that there must be some ethic rules based on patient rights and these rules must be obtained by health care professionals. In a health care service process, nursing services take more duration than of physicians. Thus, ethics rules are mentioned mainly for the health staff. The other important recent topic of health care system is innovation concept. Innovation may be applied in many fields such as equipment, personnel, method or physical environment. However, there has been not any research on innovation of ethic rules for the health organizations. For this reason, it is aimed in this research to evaluate ethic rules in health organizations in perspective of innovation concept. Results of the study showed that ethics rules must be developed based on change in sociality including legislation, and knowledge, while some of them must remain.
