Naar een handelingsgericht ethiekbeleid voor zorgorganisaties : een normatieve verkenning

Abstract

From a philosophical perspective this study explores a normative concept of ethics management for Health Care Organizations. Much attention has been paid to care as a form of action. Arendt__s typology of action that stresses qualitative differences between human activities is central in the concept. This action character of professional care needs confirmation in special organizational arrangements. So the concept brings ethics, care and organization together in a specific way. The broadening of an ethics concept for care in the direction of management and organization is the most original part of this study.
