  1. Clinical Ethics and Professional Integrity: A Comment on the ASBH Code.David M. Adams - 2024 - HEC Forum 36 (4):501-511.
    _The Code of Ethics and Professional Responsibilities for Healthcare Ethics Consultants_ instructs clinical ethics consultants to preserve their professional integrity by “not engaging in activities that involve giving an ethical justification or stamp of approval to practices they believe are inconsistent with agreed-upon standards” (ASBH, 2014, p. 2).
