title: Approval of nonprescription sale of Plan B muddies ethical waters.
abstract: The best way to minimize conflicts and confusion over ethical and religious issues is to understand provider and patients' rights and have a solid plan in place, say ED experts. Make sure you know what your providers are and are not willing to do. Staff members who refuse care still are obligated to inform patients how they can receive it. Have other physicians or nurses available to provide care when such situations arise.
