The legalization of euthanasia creates a certain tension when it is compared with those traditional medical principles that seem to embody respect for the sanctity of life. It also creates a real need for us to explore what we mean by harm in relation to dying patients. When we consider that we must train physicians so that they not only understand ethical issues but also show virtues in their clinical practice, it becomes important for us to strive to train them in virtue rather than mere knowledge. We can only do this by conveying a real sense of the needs of the patients and an ability to relate to patients as people not problems. Such attitudes take shape in a training programme in which practical situations are explored and discussed and the limits of scientific medical response to those challenges are exposed.
