Dylematy moralne polskich aptekarzy
Streszczenie
A comprehensive work that would be focused on the moral dilemmas of the pharmacists
has not been published yet. The pharmacist profession is commonly perceived
as an occupation associated with such virtues as calmness, precision and
accuracy. However, there is a lack of knowledge on the moral dilemmas the pharmacist
contends with. One of the reasons lies in the fact that some citizens of our
country, especially the younger generation, do not recognise the difference between
the profession of pharmacist and the profession of salesperson. On the other hand, as
M. Brazier indicates, the majority of scientific works are almost exclusively concentrated
on the ethical dilemmas of ‘high drama’ and ‘low incidence’. In that context
the work of pharmacist appears to be imbued with the ‘small dramas’ taking place
every day. Therefore, it seems to be necessary to point out what duties or conflicts of
values the Polish pharmacist faces and to make an attempt to find appropriate ways
to solve them.
