If a doctor does not believe that certain alternative treatments have medical value, which statement best describes the part of
ethics the doctor should follow? insisting a patient take a prescribed pill instead of an herbal tea
having a nurse on staff who understands alternative approaches
being sensitive to other cultures and viewpoints
knowing when a person needs to be convinced of a Western approach
Be sensitive to other cultures and viewpoints. It’s unethical to try and force patients into a biomedical framework when they would like to use alternative treatments. A patient has the right to refuse treatment and to seek the type of treatment they desire.
