Clearly additional research on these questions is needed. Patients' views on these protocols have not been directly surveyed. Public opinion polls have shown strong and consistent support for shared decision making and advance directives for life-sustaining treatments (President's Commission, 1982; Society for the Right to Die, 1987). Presumably this approval means that patients would support health facility protocols that attempted to promote these practices. CONCLUSION The final objective of health care facility protocols is to improve patient care.

Chapter 7 addresses protocol provisions to address this issue. CIVIL LIABILITY AND HEALTH CARE FACILITY PROTOCOLS An older view of health care facilities as "empty shells" in which patients were treated by legally responsible professionals has been replaced by a stronger view of institutional liability to patients for treatment practices (Bertolet & Goldsmith, 1980; Kapp, 1987; Peters & Peraino, 1984). A judgment against the facility would rest on a finding that administrative action or inaction was causally connected to the injury of a patient (Curran, 1984; Southwick, 1973).

A facility might also be found to be directly liable to the patient for 20 Part I: Current Protocol Practices and Objectives injuries sustained during treatment (Kapp, 1987; Peters & Peraino, 1984; Southwick, 1973). The 1965 Darling decision, which established the direct liability of health care facilities, allowed accrediting standards to be accepted as evidence of a standard for practice (Bertolet & Goldsmith, 1980; Peters & Peraino, 1984). Since Darling, the standards of state health departments or accrediting bodies have often been used to evaluate health facility negligence.
