Human values and ethics: professional responsibility.

Following professional codes does not automatically lead to ethical decision-making. Because the health professional makes a commitment to care for human beings and these persons are in a state of need which only expert advice can rectify, a professional decision requires ethical analysis of values. Such analysis engages the whole person in a process of self-reflection and critique of action, something a code of ethics does not provide. For health professionals, including nutritionists and dietitians, the insight is not just philosophical; it stems from the very nature of the profession.

He provides guidelines for physicians and committees of peers participating in peer review and suggests that review of professional ethics be incorporated into the review of the quality, cost, quantity, and availability of medical services.
