Institutional Ethics Program

The Institutional Ethics Program is a joint commitment of the UTMB Health System and the Institute for Bioethics & Health Humanities which recognizes that uncertainty, confusion and tension regarding different individual, professional, social and institutional values often produce complex ethical issues and questions. The Program is composed of the Clinical Ethics Consultation Service, the Integrated Ethics Program, Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC), and numerous educational and academic endeavors.
