Ethicist provides coverage for ethics consult requests in the Central Illinois Region, by being on-call for consults as part of the annual consult coverage rotation. This coverage rotation is shared by all members of the ethics committee with the training and education to serve as a consultant. Each consultant has times during the year, when they are primarily responsible for responding to ethics consultation requests within the region.

• Main Function A: when on-call for ethics, to field requests for consultation and either respond personally, or arrange for a sub-group from the larger ethics committee, to respond to the consult request.

• Main Function B: to discuss the consult with the individual making the request and the healthcare team members supporting the patient’s situation. Team members will include physicians, nurses, nursing leadership, social work, case management, chaplains, and any other healthcare team members involved in that situation.
