UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL ALBERT B. CHANDLER MEDICAL CENTER LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY BEHAVIORAL STANDARDS IN PATIENT CARE* SECTION 1 PREAMBLE The mission of the University of Kentucky Medical Center (University Hospital, Kentucky Clinics, and affiliated entities) is to help the people of the Commonwealth and beyond, gain and retain good health through creative leadership and quality initiatives in education, research, and service. It is well established that the “caring” aspect of treating patients has a therapeutic impact; the quality of the environment and the interpersonal relationships that surround patients appreciably affect the course of their recovery. From experience, we know that we cannot assume that all individuals hold acceptable attitudes or understandings regarding what is ethical, right, or appropriate in regard to relationships with patients, families, and colleagues. Since behavior in patient care, as in other areas, is learned, and since the ultimate goal of an academic health sciences center is exemplary patient care as a teaching model, high standards of professional and humane behavior in patient care should be prominent among the values that are communicated through all learning experiences, formal and informal. This institution has the obligation and responsibility to formulate and implement such standards. As a state institution, support of the community health care systems consistent with legal and ethical treatment of patients is part of the University of Kentucky Medical Center service mission. In order to fulfill this mission, the Medical Center practitioners must work as a team with community providers, hospitals, and other health practitioners throughout Kentucky. The following Standards are not intended to supplant existing professional codes of ethics where they exist for specific professions and applicable laws and regulations regarding the care and treatment of patients but rather to illustrate, specify, and make relevant these generally accepted ethical codes to our patient care programs. While the Standards are primarily the institution’s goal to provide exemplary patient care and to serve as an instructional document, many of the Standards describe mandatory behavior. Supervisors, instructors and professionals shall have responsibility for introducing and maintaining an acceptable level of performance according to these Standards in their individual areas of responsibility. They shall have the opportunity and responsibility to exercise discretion and judgment in whether a violation is minor and needs primarily counseling, reprimand, and/or warning or whether it constitutes a major violation requiring disciplinary action. * Referred to in this document as Standards. 3
