Thanks to the amendment of “Hospice and Palliative Care Act”, medical personnel in Taiwan now can respect the patient’s own or immediate family member’s will to remove the life support and not performing CPR when the terminally ill patient is confirmed of receiving futile medical care. This amendment is aimed to relieve the patient’s nagging pain and to give the patient an opportunity to pass away with more dignity. This research is aimed to determine whether the medical personnel’s willingness to remove the patient’s life support is influenced by “moral judgment” or “organizational climate” and the relationship thereof.
This research is based on the survey of respiratory therapists in Taiwan. A total of 267 effective samples are collected. SPSS statistical software is applied to determine the correlation efficient and regression analysis is performed to test the research hypothesis. The study result shows:
1. Moral judgement has significant impact on the willingness to remove life support system;
2. Organizational climate has no significant impact on the willingness to remove life support system.
Key words: Moral Judgement, organizational climate, life support system removal.
