Goal
Health professionals have legal and ethical responsibilities and accountabilities in practice. The goal of this assessment is to apply your understanding of ethical and legal principles and requirements to the roles and responsibilities of health professionals.
You will be required to develop short answer responses to set case studies. Your responses will draw on theory, legislation, professional codes and practice standards. You will also provide a reflection based on your experience.
Task
In this task you are asked to respond to the three scenarios presented below. Within your response to each case you must consider:
1. The legal requirements for student nurses and student midwives, registered nurses and registered midwives.
2. The implications for the health facility and/or education provider if required for each of the cases.
3. Your reflection of life experiences (you do not have to have experienced any of these specific incidents). Think about difficult situations you have encountered in the past, your ethical stance and how this will inform your discussion on how easy or difficult it will be to meet the requirements for each of the cases.
Case studies
Case 1
You are on placement and are walking your patient back to their bed. On the way you pass another student nurse who is talking with another patient. You can hear some heated exchange between them and look over to hear the patient shout an expletive at the student who then slaps the patient and walks off. You and your patient (who also heard and saw the incident) are quite shaken by what you have seen and once your patient is back in their bed you go to find your fellow student. The student is crying and quite upset but asks you not to say anything. You are concerned about what you witnessed, and you are also concerned how this might affect the other student.
Case 2
You are sharing a flat with another newly registered nurse and have noticed some changes in behaviour over the past month following a relationship break up. Your flatmate works on the same ward and has been regularly drinking heavily since the breakup and was charged (over the high limit) with drink driving 2 days ago. You had to pick them up from the police station in the early hours. You discussed with them about reporting this to your NUM, but your flatmate does not want to report stating Its none of their business, I didnt hurt anyone. You are both leaving for an early shift and your flatmate is catching a lift with you into work. They had been out late last night and smell strongly of alcohol and still appear affected by alcohol and when you discuss this with them, they ask you not to say anything.
Case 3
You are an RN and are responsible for facilitating students on clinical placement in a rural facility for several education providers. You have been working with a student on an early shift and have been admitting a female patient who needs to go to theatre. You take off her necklace and watch and put this in the top drawer, telling her that once she is admitted and prepared for theatre you will put her valuables in a marked envelope in the locked drawer. Once the patient is admitted you ask the student to finish tidying up. You go off to get an envelope to put the valuables in and label with the patients name and when you get back to the bed the watch is in the drawer, but the necklace is missing. You ask the student where the necklace is, and they own up to taking this and hand it back to you.
