The Center for Organizational Ethics at Marian University is sponsoring the 2nd annual Lead from the Heart event: Ethics Perspectives in Healthcare on Wednesday, February 23, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Our speakers will be Dr. Chuck Dietzen, Founder and President of the Timmy Foundation, and Dr. Lucia Wocial, Nurse Ethicist and Program Leader at the Fairbanks Center for Medical Ethics at Indiana University Health. Dr. Chuck will speak on compassionate end-of-life care and Dr. Wocial will speak on moral distress in healthcare professionals.
The event will be held at Allison Mansion on the campus of Marian University. Registration will begin at 4:00 p.m. with hors d'oeuvres served at 4:30. The speakers will begin at 5:00 p.m. with questions and answers from 6:00 t0 6:30.
I think this should be a very exciting event addressing two critical issues in healthcare ethics. I hope to see a great crowd there. If you know anyone who might be interested, let them know about this event. Questions? Call me at 955-6115 or email me at kspear@marian.edu.
