Hygienist Case Study

Which I consider is her act of rebellion since she didn’t finish her CSL and wanted to do what she needed to do. Ehrenreich’s experiment isn’t unethical because she didn’t cause any harm to anyone or violate any laws. The only thing that can be considered unethical is that she lied on the last application and lied to her co-worker Pete that she was single. Ehrenreich didn’t lie to hurt anyone but to sort of benefit from them in the sense that they would have her back and she lied on the application to see if her chances of getting a job were different. Ehrenreich’s experiment, in my opinion, is to be considered only

This model is designed to use the need of identifying and correcting errors other than focusing on the punishments of the employee. A line within this culture states that staff are not fired due to a human error. The focus on better the person as a medical professional, since humans can just make mistakes. It was argued that she should have realized that the dose was too much for an infant. The argument back was that a firing a nurse who made a mistake isn’t really solving anything.

The establishment violated Title VII rights which discriminated her based national origin accent. They also acted in a violation which is called Disparate Treatment Violation, just because potential customers complained about her performance, it doesn’t give the company the right to fire her.

Cases of airing concern by the nurse might be risky for their career, but the risk of airing such concerns do not eliminate the obligation held by a nurse to address life threatening issues faced by a patient. A nurse is obligated to speak and act in the ways which will provide sufficient support for the safety of the patient. In the situation addressed, the nurse is unable to assist since the effort to air their view and concern to advocate for the patient is shut by the management and the physician in

On addition, had to pay the ACCC’s costs. Primary stakeholders: o Health professionals and buyers who have been informing and guiding parents and children on responsible use of the medication would affected the most. The Specific pain case would have resulted in losing trustworthiness and honesty between the health professionals and the patients. The buyers in situation would have lost faith in the company and might prefer choosing another brand.

Damages are the actual result of the improper care that follows with an injury to another. The dentist duty was to make sure these children received the best care that they paid for, but he failed to deliver that so he owed them an explanation in court.

Whether the administrator 's credibility would be up for debate is up to Extendicare, but the wellness of the residents, including Luba, should be handled accordingly with standards which nursing homes hold themselves up to. This only instills uncertainty among the families with relatives in nursing homes, and presents a bad lighting for personal support workers. The unfortunate truth is that this is one of many serious cases involving nursing homes and their neglect for their residents, and it should stand as an example for personal support workers to

According to Kant nurses must determine if lying is an acceptable ethical behavior. Rationally, lying is not ethical and is not tolerable to any situation as it violates the duty to tell the truth to those individuals who are entitled to honest information, in which nurse-patient relationship or trusts will not develop. Deontologist also believes that killing a fetus is wrong and immoral. Deontology suggest that health care workers have a ? moral duty, to maintain and preserve life?

The clinician-patient confidentiality relationship is an important bond for patients to feel secure. This relationship is almost unbreakable; however, it is not invincible. Confidentiality of the patient can be broken if the patient discloses information about harming themselves or someone else. In the Tarasoff case study, the ethical question posed is: is it ethical for a therapist to break patient confidentiality if imminent danger of the patient or another person is disclosed during a therapy session? Arguing that this is indeed unethical, counterarguments pose that breaking confidentiality is a risk to all patients.

It is recognizable that assisted suicide goes against human nature. Physician assisted suicide is judged morally wrong because every human is inclined to continue living. In the event that a terminally ill patient cannot be cured, palliative sedation is an option. According Boudreau, “we believe that the art of healing should always remain at the core of medical practice…sedation is morally acceptable to avoid severe pain…sedation achieves a humane and compassionate period for the patient, caregivers, and family without precipitating important concerns about slippery slopes”. Healthcare facilities have to comply with the rules and regulations.

It is unprofessional for Evita to allow the parents to disclose such critical information to her and then have them witness her essentially covering for them to the physician. As a social worker I feel you face many difficult situations where you may feel bad about making your client’s situation worse, but you always need to stay professional and be able to maintain your agreement to the code of

Miss Strangeworth was a strong believer in that to get rid of the evil that lurked in her beloved town, the townspeople would need to face a little evil of their own. The letter would have been sufficient, but considering it probably landed in Don Crane’s hands last, her message would not have been received in a positive eye-opening way. This terrible mishap had been a result of her own sloppiness. If only I had waited until the next day! Strangeworth decided it was time to stop looking back on her mistake.

Although I can understand why the oncologist may consider the nurse was acting unprofessionally by Kuhse’s standards, I do not agree with the oncologist’s decision or actions. According to Kuhse, nurses should only have a position of “advocacy for patients” and should accept their apparently subservient role in the medical world. Her ideas state that truly caring

This causes some problems with Lucy’s clients because they will call her supervisor to complain about how they feel that they were left in the dark about her relocating and unimportant. Now after reading Lucy’s story, one can make some critical judgments on what Lucy did wrong in this scenario. The first red flag is when Lucy violated the Code of Ethics Principle I. Principle I rule E states that individuals, “…who hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence may delegate tasks related to the provision of clinical services to aides, assistants, technicians, support personnel, or any other persons only if those persons are adequately prepared and are appropriately supervised. The responsibility for the welfare of those being served remains with the certified individual”.

I agree, carefully searching for issues and questioning the MD would have prevented this issue. Obtaining the patient 's neurological status and checking the drug levels would 've prevented this problem. This is an indictment on the whole team, not just the nurse. I believe that each profession working on this team should 've noticed the issue. Also the phrase "I 'm ok with not making a big deal out of this" sounded nefarious and unethical.
