meanwhile, come into play when actions conflict with established laws or legal norms. The challenge arises in balancing both ethical and legal considerations when making decisions.### 2. **Ethical Issues in
Healthcare**Healthcare is one of the sectors where ethical and legal issues are particularly pronounced. Medical professionals regularly face situations that require them to make complex decisions that not only have
life-altering consequences for patients but also raise profound moral questions. These issues include:#### 2.1 **Patient Autonomy and Informed Consent**One of the fundamental ethical principles in healthcare is
respect for patient autonomy—the right of patients to make decisions about their own bodies and medical treatments. This principle is enshrined in the legal concept of informed consent. Informed consent requires
healthcare providers to disclose all relevant information about the risks, benefits, and alternatives to a medical treatment or procedure, allowing patients to make informed decisions.However, challenges arise when
patients are not fully capable of making informed decisions (e.g., due to age, mental illness, or language barriers). In such cases, ethical dilemmas can arise regarding whether a third party (e.g., a parent or guardian)
should make the decision on the patient’s behalf, and whether the legal framework supports such decisions.#### 2.2 **End-of-Life Decisions and Euthanasia**End-of-life care, particularly decisions regarding
euthanasia, brings about significant ethical and legal debates. While some argue that individuals should have the right to choose a dignified death through euthanasia or assisted suicide, others believe that these
practices undermine the sanctity of life. Legal systems across the world differ on the matter, with some countries or states permitting euthanasia, while others forbid it entirely.#### 2.3 **Confidentiality and
Privacy**Medical professionals are ethically and legally bound to maintain patient confidentiality. The principle of confidentiality is critical for building trust between patients and healthcare providers. However,
breaches in confidentiality can occur when healthcare providers are forced to share patient information due to legal requirements, such as in cases of child abuse or public health emergencies. The balance between
maintaining confidentiality and ensuring public safety often creates a complex ethical and legal dilemma.### 3. **Ethical Issues in Business**In the world of business, ethical and legal issues are common and wide-
ranging. Companies are often faced with difficult decisions about how to balance profit motives with moral responsibility. These ethical issues often extend into areas like corporate governance, consumer protection,
employee rights, and environmental responsibility.#### 3.1 **Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)**Corporate emerge

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The nurse is developing a human needs statement for a patient who has a new diagnosis of heart
failure. Identification of human needs statements occur with which of these activities?
a. Collection of patient data
b. Administering interventions
c. Deciding on patient outcomes
d. Documenting the patient‘s behavior
ANS: A

2. The patient is to receive oral guaifenesin twice a day. Today, the nurse was busy and gave the
medication 2 hours after the scheduled dose was due. What type of problem does this represent?
a. ―Right time‖
b. ―Right dose‖
c. ―Right route‖
d. ―Right medication‖
ANS: A
―Right time‖ is correct because the medication was given more than 30 minutes after the scheduled dose
was due. ―Dose‖ is incorrect because the dose is not related to the time the medication administration is
scheduled. ―Route‖ is incorrect because the route is not affected.
―Medication‖ is incorrect because the medication ordered will not change.

3. The nurse has been monitoring the patient‘s progress on a new drug regimen since the first dose and
documenting the patient‘s therapeutic response to the medication. Which phase of the nursing process
do these actions illustrate?
a. Human needs statement
b. Planning

, c. Implementation
d. Evaluation
ANS: D
Monitoring the patient‘s progress, including the patient‘s response to the medication, is part of the
evaluation phase. Planning, implementation, and human needs statement are not illustrated by this
example.

b. The patient will not experience complications.
c. The patient will adhere to the new insulin treatment regimen.
d. The patient will demonstrate correct blood glucose testing technique.
ANS: D

b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the patient‘s input
c. Recording a drug history regarding over-the-counter medications used at home
d. Formulating human needs statements regarding deficient knowledge related to the
new treatment regimen
ANS: A
Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. Setting goals and outcomes
reflects the planning phase. Recording a drug history reflects the assessment phase. Formulating human
needs statements reflects analysis of data as part of planning.

b. Give the medication orally because the tablets are available in 4-mg doses.
c. Contact the prescriber to clarify the route of the medication ordered.

Issues in Healthcare**Healthcare is one of the sectors where ethical and legal issues are particularly pronounced. Medical professionals regularly face situations that require them to make complex decisions that not

only have life-altering consequences for patients but also raise profound moral questions. These issues include:#### 2.1 **Patient Autonomy and Informed Consent**One of the fundamental ethical principles in

, requires healthcare providers to disclose all relevant information about the risks, benefits, and alternatives to a medical treatment or procedure, allowing patients to make informed decisions.However, challenges arise

when patients are not fully capable of making informed decisions (e.g., due to age, mental illness, or language barriers). In such cases, ethical dilemmas can arise regarding whether a third party (e.g., a parent or

guardian) should make the decision on the patient’s behalf, and whether the legal framework supports such decisions.#### 2.2 **End-of-Life Decisions and Euthanasia**End-of-life care, particularly decisions

regarding euthanasia, brings about significant ethical and legal debates. While some argue that individuals should have the right to choose a dignified death through euthanasia or assisted suicide, others believe that

these practices undermine the sanctity of life. Legal systems across the world differ on the matter, with some countries or states permitting euthanasia, while others forbid it entirely.#### 2.3 **Confidentiality and

A complete medication order includes the route of administration. If a medication order does not include
the route, the nurse must ask the prescriber to clarify it. The intravenous and oral routes are not
interchangeable. Holding the medication until the prescriber returns would mean that the patient would
not receive a needed medication.

7. When the nurse considers the timing of a drug dose, which factor is appropriate to consider when
deciding when to give a drug?
a. The patient‘s ability to swallow
b. The patient‘s height
c. The patient‘s last meal
d. The patient‘s allergies
ANS: C
The nurse must consider specific pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic drug properties that may be
affected by the timing of the last meal. The patient‘s ability to swallow, height, and allergies are not
factors to consider regarding the timing of the drug‘s administration.

8. The nurse is performing an assessment of a newly admitted patient. Which is an example of subjective
data?
a. Weight 155 pounds
b. Pulse 72 beats/minute
c. The patient reports that he uses the herbal product ginkgo
d. The patient‘s complete blood count results
ANS: C
Subjective data include information shared through the spoken word by any reliable source, such as the
patient. Objective data may be defined as any information gathered through the senses or that which is
seen, heard, felt, or smelled. A patient‘s pulse, weight, and laboratory tests are all examples of objective
data.

MULTIPLE RESPONSE

1. When giving medications, the nurse will follow the rights of medication administration. The rights
include the right documentation, the right reason, the right response, and the patient‘s right to refuse.
Which of these are additional rights? (Select all that apply.) These principles often help people determine what is "right" or "wrong" in different
situations. Law, on the other hand, is a system of rules that are created and enforced by institutions to regulate behavior, ensure order, and resolve disputes.Ethical dilemmas often arise when an individual
