Joshua Case Study
1) For my response to be to Joshua is that he would have to ask his parents about what is going on. Due to I am not on your case I am not aware with what is going on with your care plan. If you would like Joshua I can go ask the doctor who is on his case to talk with you and your parents about your care. Also, I can not discuss what is going on due to you’re a minor and your parents have control with what is happening with your care and what we are allowed to tell you. Due to the ethical standing Joshua I am not allowed to discuss your care with you unless I have your parent’s permission and if I was on your care team to know what is happening. With this response I am following all the ethical principles by being fidelity, non-maleficence, and beneficence.

And inform him you would like more information about what is going on, and how he knows that the nurses are not telling him everything. That he would like to have a meeting with you and his parents about his care. And if Joshua asks me about his plan of care I will report it to the unit manger and also go and report it to the ethic committee board. Due to I do not want to break any ethical principle since I am his friend and know him personally. I want to do non-maleficence and beneficence which means I am doing no harm into breaking ethical standards and doing good by reporting it and telling the correct people on Joshua’s

    HLT 520: Ethical Dilemmas In Health Care

    According to Pogzar (2012), in the healthcare setting caregivers demonstrate beneficence by balancing benefits against risk. Although the daughter is educated on the treatment she is administering and feels it will improve her father’s condition, the facility physicians feel that it is too risky and is causing the patient unnecessary pain. The physicians in this case should make it clear to the daughter that as long as the patient receives his treatment at their facility it must be within the guidelines of what they feel is in his best interest. The physicians have an obligation to the patient and must be compassionate in the care that he receives. In the healthcare setting, it is extremely hard to practice beneficence. Patients enter a healthcare facility with the confidence that they will be treated with kindness. One of the specific norms that arise from this principle is for caregivers to appreciate the complexity of life and make sound decisions for the good of others. The next ethical principle in this case is non-maleficence which requires caregivers to do no harm. This concept is the basis of the Hippocratic Oath taken by physicians. This principle is not concerned with improving a patient’s well-being, but rather avoiding the infliction of harm to a patient (Pogzar, 2012, p. 371).…

    Nvt2 Task 1

    The nurse in the case study is faced with an ethical and professional, dilemma. How can she be an advocate for her patient Mr. E? Dr G. is proceeding on a course of action or plan of care that is directly contrary to the patients advance directive and his verbalized objections to the course of treatment proposed by the physician and that is concerning for her. There are multiple issues to consider. For the nurse, she needs to think about her code of ethics, her scope of practice and the legal issues regarding advance directives and Durable Power Of Attorney (DPOA). She also needs to consider the patients right to privacy and confidentiality. As with most areas and issues in modern healthcare the statues can be vague and sometimes the issues can be in conflict with our own personal beliefs.…

    Cardia Pre-Op Clinic Reflection

    This week in the cardia pre-op clinic, a Nurse Practitioner (NP) named Dot told me about her patient needed child life and that she was not prepared for her surgery. The patient was an 8-year-old girl from Puerto Rico who spoke Spanish and some English. I met D.F. and her mother in the waiting area of the pre-op clinic. I accompanied D.F and her mother to the lab and assessed D.F.’s understanding of why she was coming to the hospital. D.F. told me that she had a murmur and when I said, “oh, a murmur in your heart,” she told me, “no, a murmur in my chest.” Then I went back up to the pre-op clinic and spoke to Dot, asking her if the other had shared her understanding of the surgery and if there was any reason why she was not prepared for her surgery. Dot shared that the surgery had been moved up one week, and when she asked the mother that morning if D.F. had been prepared she did not realize the importance of preparing her child. I decided it would be best to talk with the mother first about preparing D.F. and giving her the option of preparing D.F. herself.…

    Autonomy In Nursing

    Also, nobody is present from their family to make decision on their behalf. This could give rise the ethical problem and dilemma for a nurse and/or for a paramedic because patient refused treatment. It would result in delay in patient care (Betts, 2013). Although to build effective relationship with a patient, trust is really important and this can only build by maintaining the patient autonomy (Betts, 2013). Autonomy of the patient is admired by ethical code of conduct and regulations as outlined by Australian Medical Association (AMA). It defines that for health care providers, the thought of the good health of patient should be kept at prime precedence (Townsend & Luck,…

    Care Plan

    My preceptor had explained to me the process involved in care planning for a patient on the unit, the doctor will do the majority of the assessment, the nurse carries out the risk assessment and completes Roper Logan and Tierney nursing assessment which is the nursing model used by the Louth/Meath services. The nurse also carries out an admission checklist. When the patient has been admitted and the nurse has gathered all the relevant information they will then incorporate the care plan. I familiarised myself with the documents, I will admit I felt a little apprehensive; I was worried I might say the wrong thing or ask the wrong question. As John had a previous history, I had been informed that he suffers severe paranoid delusions. This immediately alarmed me in the sense of communication difficulties.…

    Observation Of Joshua

    According to Joshua’s present performance at 3.8 years old, Joshua displays difficulty expressing himself during class and is inconsistent with the functionality of certain objects. For example, Joshua was asked to retrieve an item that belongs in the bathroom, but upon completion he was unable to verbalize the function of the object. On the other hand, Joshua is able to identify his name and distinguish different colors, numbers, shapes and letters. He has the ability to count to 10 but shows signs of difficulty when asked to identify the numbers. Furthermore, it was determined that Joshua works best in a small group setting. He’s become easily distracted when seated alone causing his level of academic achievement to plummet. Often times,…
