Conscientious objection in healthcare, particularly regarding abortion and contraception, can manifest in various philosophical approaches, including conscience absolutism (where the provider's personal moral or ethical beliefs always take precedence), conscience universalism (which might suggest a universal moral or ethical standard that could guide decisions), and conscience skepticism (questioning the validity or applicability of conscientious objection itself). Therefore, health care providers might adopt any of these stances when dealing with issues of conscientious objection.
