Advancements in technology have defined the turn of the century and subsequently revolutionized the mortality rate in society. However, the technologies used in the preventive or predictive treatment are advanced to address the needs of the population they cater to effectively. Bioethics committees must consider the desires and needs of the populations served because it allows for the effective implementation and use of technology to increase their health.
Bioethics plays a vital role in addressing society’s development concerns or priorities. In engaging the members of science who use medicinal technologies, bioethics committees ensure the youth and the elderly have a voice in the care received. A decrease in the mortality rate has composed a society primarily of the elderly (Campos, 2019). The level of healthcare obtained from new technologies is enhanced through educating and sensitizing them accordingly.
A specially created UNESCO committee makes it possible to disseminate information age-appropriate and ethical. A study by Alderson et al. (2021) proves that awareness dramatically increases the effectiveness of the technology introduced. They found that children who are a heart transplant needed perceive the operation more easily once they know the details. In addition, any medical policy should have the social aspect as the priority of its goals because this avoids opposing changes that will help people.
I believe that no progress is possible if society is not involved in this change. I want my opinions to carry weight and that my wishes, for example, in preventive services, are taken into account. I believe that a sense of safety in complex operations is created precisely by the widespread dissemination of information to the public. I want the bioethics committee to create differentiated handouts for each group: children should know about the need for prevention and the elderly about their medications and the dangers of overtaking them.
In conclusion, I would like to point out that bioethics committees are important organizations to regulate the relationship between society and medicine. All populations need information because age, race, gender, and culture must be considered when providing medical care. They will build a dialogue and achieve the primary goal of medicine – to teach how to be healthy. If a particular population group is aware of the tools to improve their health, the health department can use these technologies more effectively.
