ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN CLINICAL EDUCATION OF MEDICAL STUDENTS

Background: Medical students at all levels of experience, encounter learning opportunities in a wide variety of clinical settings. There are some ethical dilemmas a student may face and possibly carry the burden throughout his file. Most of formal medical ethics teaching focuses on dilemmas that students may face in their future practice, rather than the ethical problems they encounter as medical students. Several studies suggest that studentsʹ clinical experiences constitute an informal or hidden ethics curriculum, which can undermine their developing professionalism. Methods: In this article, we discuss some ethical dilemmas of medical education and also some solutions for them. Results & Conclusion: In order to promote a setting that is satisfying to the student, to the faculty, and most importantly, to the patients, we have proposed ethical notes for medical students about informed consent, protecting patient confidentiality and managing ethical concerns.
