The Research Clinic Simulation
You will need to complete this simulation in order to answer your Discussion Prompt this week! Throughout the course, you have learned about research ethics. This simulation will let you see how some of those ethical concerns play out in the clinical setting along with the real-life consequences that can result.
Each role places you in several situations in which you must make decisions that affect patients, family, and your professional ethics and moral values.
