Health accompanied by Bioethics

Keywords: Bioethics, Responsability Health, Mental health

Abstract

Bioethics has emerged as a discipline to assess human conduct in light of ethical principles. On the other hand, in medical practice, for many years, decisions were made only by the doctor, without taking into account that the patient is also a person and therefore has the right to participate in them. This leads to a responsible exercise in that decision-making, considering that a doctor-patient relationship is established that generates rights and obligations for each one of them. This responsibility goes beyond the commitment that could be created between the professional and the patient, since each one must assume the obligations inherent to their role, both with constant updating and learning, and with permanent self-care in health; With these behaviors, it will favor reaching the state of physical, mental and social well-being.
