Patients have a bill of rights. Patients also consent to care and have a right to self-determine their care. Those who care for patients are to keep information protected.
You must choose ONE of the ethical principles:
• Autonomy
• Beneficence
• Non-maleficence
• Fidelity
• Veracity
• Justice
• Once you have chosen your ethical principle:
Describe a scenario in which an ethical principle was not followed properly, whether this was at your place of work (Please remember HIPAA and Confidentiality).
Describe a scenario in which that ethical principle was followed correctly.
Discuss with your colleagues the right, the legal/ethical basis for this right, and how this translates into responsibility for a specific health service organization setting.
Provide two specific real-life legal case examples that you find on the internet or in the media. Examples: assisted living facilities for disabled, long term care facility, a home care nursing association, a small physician practice, a hospital, a rehabilitation center, or a first responder/ambulance. Remember to discuss the ethical principal, the setting and the health care organizations responsibility.
