Patient’s right
While a physician should always act according to his/her conscience, and always in the best interests of the patient, equal effort must be made to guarantee patient autonomy and justice. The following represents some of the principal rights of the patient which the medical profession endorses and promotes. Physicians and other persons or bodies involved in the provision of health care have a joint responsibility to recognize and uphold these rights. Whenever legislation, government action or any other administration or institution denies patients these rights, physicians should pursue appropriate means to assure or to restore them.
In the context of biomedical research involving human subjects — including non-therapeutic biomedical research — the subject is entitled to the same rights and consideration as any patient in a normal therapeutic situation.
Right to medical care of good quality
- Every person is entitled without discrimination to appropriate medical care, regardless of their status in the society, religion, beliefs and cultural practices, language, etc.
- Every patient has the right to be cared for by a physician whom he/she knows to be free to make clinical and ethical judgments without any outside interference.
- The patient shall always be treated in accordance with his/her best interests. The treatment applied shall be in accordance with generally approved medical principles.
