Abstract

Bioética: Una mirada hacia la enfermería. Rev Cubana Enfermer [online]. 1999, vol.15, n.2, pp. 85-89. ISSN 1561-2961.

The present paper is the result of an updated literature review of 30 documents on bioethics carried out from October, 1995 to June, 1997; seven of such documents were used as references for this article. It is aimed at increasing nursery staff's knowledge on bioethics and its relationship to the society, making emphasis on its role in our field, and at stating the phylosophical currents that substantiate the importance of bioethics as a discipline. Also, the foundations of bioethics, that is, principles of autonomy, justice, charity, no malice and informed consent were set forth. The code of nurses is addresed in a dialectical way and ethical advices for nursery such as nurse and profession, nurse and vocation, moral virtues of a nurse and her/his linking to the patient, family and community are given.

Keywords : BIOETHICS; ETHICS, NURSING; NURSING.
