This book provides a bridge between the theory to practice gap in contemporary health care ethics. It explores the messiness of everyday ethical issues and validates the potential impacts on health care professionals as wounded healers who regularly experience close proximity to suffering and pain. This book speaks to why ethics matters on a personal level and how moral distress experiences can be leveraged instead of hidden. The book offers contributions to both scholarship and the profession. Nurses, physicians, social workers, allied health care professionals, as well as academics and students will benefit from this book.
“Jones-Bonofiglio’s thoroughness and use of interdisciplinary, historical, and cultural scholarship makes this book an excellent introductory resource on moral distress for health care providers and researchers alike. ... Health Care Ethics Through the Lens of Moral Distress is an excellent introductory resource for researchers and providers who are interested in an evidence-based view of moral distress. Jones-Bonofiglio provides a comprehensive review of the relevant research and offers many resources for further reading.” (Clarisse Paron, Canadian Journal of Bioethics, Vol. 5 (1), 2022)
