ABSTRACT

Human rights violations in Nigeria's healthcare system are pervasive and systemic, reflecting broader issues of inequality and corruption, which negate the principles of bioethics. The intersection of healthcare rights and bioethics addresses the ethical implications of autonomy violations, including technological progress to ensure that stakeholders in the healthcare sector are treated with dignity and respect. Using the method of philosophical analysis, this study maintains that the intersection between healthcare rights and bioethics aims to address the impact of healthcare rights violations and societal norms. The study concludes that an ethical intersection of bioethics principles and human rights is essential to navigate the complex challenges of rights violations, guiding policymakers to fully implement bioethics principles in the healthcare sector to promote just and equitable healthcare and biomedical research worldwide.
