AbstractIn their article "Defining and Refining Trauma-Informed Ethics Consultation," Lanphier and Anani respond to my argument about surrogate trauma and prioritization. I show that there is a great deal of overlap between my view and the views of Lanphier and Anani, the architects of TIEC, with potentially some differences. Lanphier and Anani's commentary is structured by three discussion points: (1) the degree to which their articulation of TIEC challenges the HEC status quo, (2) their distinction between HEC "process" and "method," and (3) the legitimacy of "ethically acceptable options."
