Teaching care-ethics attends to situations derived from the involvement of patients in the medical training process. In comparison with ethics in clinical research, teaching care-ethics is as it was before World War II: it applies in a self-regulated manner the norms of medical ethics to educational problems with patients. The lack of specific ethical guidelines for teaching-care work is manifested, among other aspects, in weaknesses in the supervision and counseling of students during their clinical practices, which favors violations of the right to life and health of the population. It is proposed to consider the convenience of teaching-health care ethics committees, which protect and promote respect and guarantee the right to education in medical units.
