Ethics has traditionally been taught in the 'ivory towers' of academia. Recent developments and reforms in nurse education have given ethics a prominent position in most curricula. However, the vast majority of ethics teaching continues to take place in academic departments. This approach fuels the practitioner's views that nursing is a pragmatic activity whilst ethics is a cognitive endeavour; such perspectives entrench ethics firmly in the traditional gap between theory and practice. The focus of this paper presents an argument that the teaching of ethics must be versed in clinical reality if bridges are ever to be built and the theory-practice gap crossed.
传统上，伦理学是在学术界的“象牙塔”中进行教授的。护理教育领域最近的发展和改革使伦理学在大多数课程中占据了突出地位。然而，绝大多数伦理学教学仍在学术部门进行。这种教学方式助长了从业者的一种观点，即护理是一项务实的活动，而伦理学是一种认知性的努力；这种观点将伦理学牢固地置于理论与实践之间的传统鸿沟之中。本文的重点在于提出这样一个观点：如果要搭建起桥梁并跨越理论与实践的鸿沟，伦理学教学就必须融入临床实际。
