Patient in EOL (end of life) stage ask of hospice: - ✔✔ANSWER✔✔-• The patient is already end stage so
beneficence is not correct unless you are educating about smoking cessation or vaccination. This is to
promote good. Utilitarianism is the greater good for a population of patients. Justice is to be fair. Which
leaves us to autonomy. This is allowing the patient to make his own choice after giving him all the
information to make a good informed decision.

hospice for weight loss and not eating with no other major diagnoses, this is not a good referral. Hospice
