Abstract

The article contends that it is obligatory on medicine to reestablish its professional responsibilities by embracing the notion of respect for persons. It infers that the principle of respect of persons incorporate ethical convictions. These include the treatment of individuals as autonomous agents and that persons with diminished autonomy are entitled to protection.
