Character in the Professions: Medicine
Discussion Board Unit 2.1
Phronesis is an important concept in virtue ethics. Phronesis is using practical wisdom to act virtuously.
In Activity 2 of this unit, we would like you to research the events of the mid-Staffordshire hospital scandal which occurred in the latter part of the 2000s. Following your research, answer the questions:
1. How far were the problems and issues which occurred a result of a lack of virtue?
2. What sort of measures can be taken and what are the key points to learn from this scandal to ensure it is not repeated?
Share your thoughts below.
