This is episode 1 of the series: Moral Distress: How, Can, and Should We Respond to It? 

Healthcare professionals may experience moral distress when decisions are made to manage an ethical dilemma that cannot be implemented, produce a feeling of being required to act, or are inconsistent with ethical practices (Jones-Bonofiglio, 2020). Researchers have recognized that healthcare professionals often do not feel prepared to manage ethical dilemmas that could lead to a patient's care needs not being met, which can lead to moral distress in the healthcare professional (Milliken, 2018). This podcast series aims to help healthcare professionals understand moral distress, the contributing factors of moral distress, and the importance of resilience in managing or preventing moral distress.
