ABSTRACT
In the Caribbean today, issues and perspectives of Medical thics are presently influenced by a profession that shows only moderate awareness and interest on one hand, and a society still discovering its entitlements and rights, on the other. In the past, society has changed its perspective of ethical issues quite dramatically. There is evidence that this is occuring in the Caribbean. The medical professionals involved in health care delivery, must shake off their lethargy in dealing with ethics, and through education, awareness and application, maintain the dignity of the profession, and restore the rights of the patient
