Ethics is the moral foundation of nursing and midwifery practice. It defines how care is provided, how patients are respected, and how professional responsibilities are fulfilled with compassion and integrity.

For nurses and midwives in Saudi Arabia, ethical practice means aligning clinical judgment with honesty, accountability, and respect for patient dignity — while upholding the standards of the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS).

This CPD-certified course, Ethics and Ethical Standards for Nurses and Midwives (Saudi Arabia), explores the ethical values, professional expectations, and moral reasoning that underpin safe and trustworthy care. It provides practical guidance on applying ethical principles such as autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice, while recognising the importance of cultural sensitivity, confidentiality, and professional boundaries in the Kingdom’s healthcare context.

By completing this course, participants will strengthen their ability to make ethically sound decisions, communicate respectfully, and uphold professional integrity in every aspect of nursing and midwifery practice.
