All medical action always includes a double perspective: technical and moral. Bioethics emerges as a key tool to combine both aspects when medical decisions are taken in the daily work of a physician. In addition, teaching and learning are always clearly present in the working life of the majority of the practitioners. Currently, the advances of teaching Bioethics reached by the university community are remarkable. However, it was not so clear the level to the training during the medical residency and after the specialty. The context of Intensive Care Medicine dedicated to patients with critical diseases offers some characteristics which might be beneficial to the learning of a wide variety of bioethical aspects. These include, among others, the respect of the patient's autonomy, the search of beneficence, also during end-of-life care, decision making in groups or in extreme emergency cases. Related to the way of teaching Bioethics, there are different approaches, from the master class to the flipped class or the case method whose greatest exponent is simulation. Our particular proposal consists in the integration of practice and discussion in groups as essential element in teaching Bioethics, helped by some recent methodologies like simulation.
