Welcome to the Consortium Ethics Program at the University of Pittsburgh.
The Consortium Ethics Program (CEP) is the regional health care ethics network in Western Pennsylvania. This premier network educates nurses, physicians, social workers, and others from participating health care institutions in the language, methods, and literature of health care ethics. These staff members, known as CEP representatives, become on-site resource personnel who receive direct support from the CEP to meet the ethics needs of their institutions. Member institutions form a network, which is instrumental in sharing ethics resources and experiences in a cost-effective manner. Because of the collaborative and cooperative nature of the CEP, membership crosses all lines of affiliation in the ever-changing health care environment. Learn more about the CEP here!
The CEP is currently enrolling members for the 2013-2014 year. The focus for this year is the Foundations of Health Care Ethics. Click here to learn about CEP membership opportunities!
