Anderson, J.G. (2004). The role of ethics in information technology decisions: A case-based approach to biomedical informatics education.

Anderson (2004) described the need for ethical and social course content in Informatics and Medical technology courses offered by medical schools and graduate nursing programs alike. He describes how a large majority of programs do not offer social and ethical coursework alongside the Informatics education. He feels that each program must offer these topics in their coursework so that future Informatics leaders will be prepared to face dilemmas in the future practice, regardless of the work setting. After reading this article, I firmly believe that ethical and liability issues are faced by informatics leaders and professionals every single day in their work setting.
