Emerging Topics in Catholic Health Care Ethics, Series 4, Session 2

Definitions of Abortion from EMTALA and Catholic Theology

Oct. 2, 2024
1 to 1:45 p.m. ET

This session will explore the definitions and implications of abortion as outlined in the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) and contrast them with the principles of Catholic moral theology. Designed for health care professionals, ethicists, and anyone interested in the intersection of law and religion, this webinar offers a deeper understanding of how legal mandates and religious doctrines influence perspectives and practices surrounding abortion.
