Ethical Issues

Nurses are essential in patient care, upholding the ethical principles of their profession and effectively navigating ethical dilemmas. Neglecting ethical issues can lead to inadequate patient care, compromised therapeutic relationships, and moral distress among healthcare workers.
Ethical Concerns in Healthcare:
Ethical Dilemmas II01:30

Ethical Dilemmas II

Resolving an ethical dilemma in healthcare involves a systematic approach that considers every aspect of the issue, respecting both the patient's needs and values and the healthcare professional's ethical obligations. Here are potential steps to resolve an ethical dilemma:
Ethical Dilemmas I01:17

Ethical Dilemmas I

Ethical dilemmas in nursing are of utmost importance, as they often arise from the tension between adhering to core ethical principles and the practical realities of healthcare delivery. These dilemmas require nurses to navigate complex situations where competing ethical considerations pull them in different directions.
Let us explore some examples to understand the potentially complex moral decisions nurses face.
Take the case of caring for minors, particularly in areas related to reproductive...
Obedience01:08

Obedience

According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation, obedience...

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Quality
  • Humanistic Care

Background:

  • The global call for humanistic care emphasizes the importance of caring skills in nursing.
  • Improving student caring skills is crucial for nursing education, practice, and patient outcomes in China.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate baccalaureate nursing students' caring ability in China.
  • To explore the role of clinical practice in developing nursing students' caring skills.

Main Methods:

  • A two-phase mixed-methods study using the Caring Ability Inventory (CAI) survey and focus group interviews.
  • Quantitative phase: 598 nursing students surveyed.
  • Qualitative phase: 16 students interviewed.

Main Results:

  • Students scored lower on the CAI compared to other reported studies.
  • Clinical-stage students scored lower than pre-clinical students.
  • Facilitators of caring ability included professional responsibility, practice opportunities, and positive role models.
  • Obstacles included a critical learning environment, poor clinical teachers, and reality shock.

Conclusions:

  • Developing student caring ability necessitates a system-wide emphasis on caring.
  • Reducing negative role model exposure and implementing effective pedagogical strategies are key.
  • Truth-telling and critical thinking are vital components of caring education.
