Health professionals are often the first to notice a decline in health status of a fellow human being, yet many professionals report feeling conflicted about offering health information or advice to someone who is not expecting it. Supported by an IPEC mini-grant, these works are the result of an event which reviewed the ethical, legal and practical implications of offering unsolicited health information; touched on several dangerous, visible medical conditions that many Americans unknowingly live with; and explored communication barriers and caveats through group discussion. Fictional scenarios with “what-if” variations prompted discussion, and guests with practical experience were present.
