Ethics & Patient Rights
Speak for Yourself
 When you understand your rights and your choices, you will be better
prepared to participate in making medically appropriate decisions about
your health care.
If you have any questions, speak with your doctor, or
call the hospital ethics committee, social work
department, patient representatives
department or clergy. Any of these representatives will be very willing to
assist you.
The information in this section is extracted from the "Speak for
Yourself" brochure, which is given to patients when they are admitted to
a Lifespan hospital.
