The top three ethics on my list would be honesty, confidentiality, and respect. As a health care provider and a patient these three ethics is what I live by and want in return. The essential component of trust is honesty. I am honest with all involved in my care and I expect them to do the same. The honesty principle extends to issues such as confidentiality of information especially when this information becomes available to someone and does not relate directly to their duties.
