Directors owe fiduciary duties to shareholders, including the duty of loyalty and the duty of care. The duty of loyalty requires directors to act in the best interests of the shareholders and the company, while the duty of care requires directors to make informed and prudent decisions.
Informed consent stems from the legal and ethical right an individual has to decide what is done to his or her body, and from the physician's ethical duty to make sure that individuals are involved in decisions about their own health care.
The four principles of bioethics are autonomy (respect for individual's rights to make informed decisions), beneficence (duty to promote the well-being of patients), non-maleficence (do no harm), and justice (fair and equal distribution of healthcare resources).
Being duty-conscious means being mindful, aware, and responsible for fulfilling one's responsibilities and obligations. It involves prioritizing duty and carrying out tasks diligently and conscientiously.
Replace the word informed with "charged". It varies on a state-by-state basis.
