OverviewWolfson Children's Hospital, in partnership with the

University of North Florida and the Florida Bioethics

Network, presents the Fourth Annual Pediatric

Bioethics Conference.

With talks on pressing issues by experts in the field, the

conference will serve as fertile ground for the development

and elucidation of best practices in pediatric bioethics.

This conference will include sessions such as pain

management as a moral obligation, legal and ethical

challenges in child protection and receiving difficult news.

Why You Should AttendEthics committees, practitioners and public policy experts

are faced with difficult ethical challenges that can benefit

from education and opportunities to discuss those

challenges with other professionals. This conference will

provide an opportunity to engage peers from across the

region and learn what others are doing to cope with the

ethical issues that arise in pediatric care.

Who Should AttendThis course is designed for physicians, nurses, social

workers, clergy, psychologists, health administrators,

occupational therapists, speech therapists, pediatric

mental health workers, pediatric specialists, medical

students, nursing students, ethicists, philosophers and

others with an interest in pediatric bioethics.
