perspectives on issues may be similar. When views on an issue differ, then
knowledge of ethics assists in clarifying and defending one’s position to others.
B Correct! One reason for nurses studying ethics is that morality and care are at the
heart of nursing practice.
C Incorrect—Ethical theories can provide a framework for the exploration of the
ethical questions and moral issues faced in health care. These theories guide how
morality is understood within the sphere of nursing practice and the
nurse–patient or nurse–client relationship. Ethical theories and frameworks can

arguments in support of it. Nurses ensure that all relevant information is shared
