Abstract
In Ecuador, emergency medical services systems (EMS) have been constantly criticized, public servants who, compared to private servants, provide care to patients in a different way, even though the deontology applied to EMS should be the same. In this paper, a comparison of the principles of bioethics and their application in public and private SSEM, these principles are among the most fruitful to build the foundations of an intercultural bioethics. After recalling what the principles of bioethics consist of, as they have been defended by Tom L. Beauchamp and James F. Childress in the United States, I offer a brief look at the evolution of the SEMs in the constitution of Ecuador. I continue with a reflection on these principles. All this in order to socialize the bases of what we could call an intercultural bioethics in the SEMs of Ecuador.
