Ethics refers to what is morally right or wrong; a standard of how one should behave. Morals are beliefs of what is correct and not correct based on our family religion and society influences. Although ethics are personal they are also decided upon by professional or governmental organizations. Ethics can also be called Shades of Gray because there are oft times when there is no clear right or wrong choice.
For your project you need to pick a healthcare related ethical issue that interests you; research both sides of the issue form your own opinion about the issue and present it in a well thought out response.
