Item type:Ítem, Perspectiva Ética del Trabajo Social en el abordaje de la eutanasia(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Trabajo Social, 2025-02-20) ;Andrade Andrade, Sara ValentinaPino Loza, Eulalia DoloresThe present study analyzes the ethical perspective of social workers in the healthcare field regarding the approach to euthanasia in Ecuador, a complex and relevant issue following its recent decriminalization and the growing acceptance in some Latin American and European countries. The research was conducted using a qualitative and exploratory approach, aiming to understand perceptions, ethical dilemmas, and the role of social workers in this context. To achieve this, 18 social workers from the provinces of Chimborazo, Tungurahua, and Cotopaxi were interviewed, selected through convenience sampling. Semi-structured interviews were applied based on six key dimensions: values, ethical and moral dilemmas, dignity, euthanasia, social context, and the role of social work. The instrument was validated by expert judgment, and its analysis was carried out using a semantic network, allowing the systematization of experiences into a results matrix. The findings reveal tensions between religious, cultural, and professional values that influence the intervention of social workers. Although patient autonomy is recognized, personal and family beliefs condition ethical decisions. Many participants expressed internal conflicts between their individual convictions and their professional duty, reflecting the complexity of the issue. The study identified that professional intervention is mainly limited to emotional support and guidance for families, highlighting a lack of specific training in handling ethical dilemmas related to euthanasia. Social workers pointed out the need for specialized training and the creation of clear protocols to guide their actions in such cases. Additionally, the social and regulatory context was found to influence the perception and approach to euthanasia. In a country with strong religious and cultural influence, the legalization of euthanasia generates debates both in society and within professional practice. In conclusion, the study underscores the importance of strengthening ethical training and euthanasia-related education within Social Work, allowing for a more informed and balanced intervention that considers both patients’ rights and societal values.Item type:Ítem, Análisis crítico y jurídico sobre la eutanasia: caso Martha Sepúlveda(Universidad Tècnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Derecho, 2024-02) ;Acurio Musso, Kevin GeovannyTite, Segundo RamiroThe importance of the research topic lies in the fact that euthanasia has been gaining popularity in several countries around the world, and the need for the right to access a dignified death to be guaranteed by states is increasingly something that It cannot be ignored and, on the contrary, it is a demand made by the general population.
