Although clinical ethics consultation is a high-stakes endeavor with an increasing prominence in health care systems, progress in developing standards for quality is challenging. In this article, we describe the results of a pilot project utilizing portfolios as an evaluation tool. We found that this approach is feasible and resulted in a reasonably wide distribution of scores among the 23 submitted portfolios that we evaluated. We discuss limitations and implications of these results, and suggest that this is a significant step on the pathway to an eventual certification process for clinical ethics consultants.
虽然临床伦理咨询是一项高风险的工作，在医疗保健系统中的重要性日益凸显，但制定质量标准的进展却具有挑战性。在本文中，我们描述了利用组合作为评估工具的试点项目的结果。我们发现，这种方法是可行的，并且在我们评估的 23 份提交组合中，得分分布相当广泛。我们讨论了这些结果的局限性和影响，并认为这是临床伦理顾问最终认证过程的重要一步。
