Ethical issue in nursing base on case study

What is the main ethical issue that is presented in the scenario? Is it a dilemma and why?

What are the ethical principles that might be involved and why? What ethical theory best applies to the situation and why?

Explain which CNO value(s) and commitments is/are involved in this case study and why?

Explain which CNA value(s) is/are involved in this case study and why?

Is there any legislation (law) that exists related to the chosen scenario that can aid in the decision making regarding this case? If so, outline the legislation and how it is applied. The law may have limitations or exemptions to discuss. You will need to research this element independently.

Using either the Nursing Process as a framework (as outlined in the CNO Ethics Practice Standard) or the Decision-Making Process (listed on p. 93, Potter, Perry (2017) Box 7-4 examine the ethical situation described. Other relevant steps identified in the literature may supplement your analysis of the ethical issue.

Where possible support your course of action with appropriate references/resources.
Decide on the best course of action based on your analysis and research and describe it. How would you carry out the implementation of the plan? How would the success of the plan be evaluated?

Discuss and document analysis of that individual as a leader, using all elements of the definition/description of leaders and leadership she or he developed as a guide.

Nurse leader

Description

Each student is to select a contemporary or historical figure outside the field of nursing who is thought of as a leader.

After reading works by or about the leader the student will discuss and document analysis of that individual as a leader, using all elements of the definition/description of leaders and leadership she or he developed as a guide.

In an attempt to better understand our own discipline and to address the criticisms that “there are no leaders in nursing today,” each student also will select a contemporary nursing person whom she or he considers to be a leader and conduct a similar analysis of that individual as a leader.

The leader can be the CNO or nursing leadership you have recently interviewed.

After thoroughly analyzing the selected nurse and non-nurse leaders, the student is to compare the two individuals as leaders. Conclusions about their effectiveness as leaders are to be drawn.

The comparison should be documented and discussed.

The comparison should be well documented and discussed. Students should prepare a 2-page summary as indicated above and submit to this location for facilitator review and feedback.
