I am an applied philosopher and bioethicist. I work as a researcher at King’s College London, thinking and writing about the ethics of healthcare improvement and values in healthcare decision-making.
People working in improvement need to be sceptical about health care. They often question and examine longstanding practices. Polly Mitchell, Alan Cribb, and Vikki Entwistle argue that the institutionalisation of improvement can get in the way of this scepticism, allowing costly or even harmful activities to slip under the radar. They explore the role that philosophy can play in upholding an active culture of scepticism in health care improvement.
