Critical analysis of health situations from an ethical and legal perspective Task Instructions: You are required to develop short answer responses to set case studies (2000 words). In this task you are asked to respond to the two scenarios case studies presented. Your responses will draw on theory, legislation, the professional codes of conduct and ethics, and organisational policy. Within your response to each case you must consider: a. The ethical principles and how they apply to the case. b. The legal requirements for students and registered health professionals. c. The implications for the health facility and/or education provider if required for each of the cases Note: This task does not require a reflection. 2 | P a g e Case 1 You have just started placement in a regional hospital. The patient you have been allocated to is going to theatre. This patient refused to consent to having a student observe or assist during the procedure. You escort the patient to theatre to give a clinical hand over. Your mentor sends you to go change so you can go into the theatre. You state that you are not allowed to go into theatre as the patient does not want students to be present whilst they are under anaesthetic. Your mentor dismisses your concerns saying, “They won’t even know you were there”. You are now feeling stressed. Case 2 You are on placement in a rural health facility with another student. You are both staying in the quarters building and have been on the same shifts for the week. You notice that your fellow student appears to be drinking alcohol quite heavily each night and getting back to the quarters very late. At the start of placement, you were asked if you wanted to have a drink with them, but you declined as you wanted to focus on your studies. Last night they were posting pictures of themselves in uniform at the local pub intoxicated and posting this on their Instagram stories. This morning it appears that they are attending the morning shift apparently still under the influence of alcohol. You decide to confront them as their behaviour is putting patients at risk and also has an influence on your placement. They state that they have been struggling with the death of a close friend a month ago and that without the support of family they are struggling emotionally. They don’t want you tell anyone as they need to get through this placement as they cannot afford to repeat the placement or course and would have to withdraw from their degree. 3 | P a g e Nur222 Rubric: Task Case studies Criteria Ratings Points Definition of and application of contemporary professional ethical standards to decision making and practice 30 to >25.2 pts High Distinction Insightful applications where complex or difficult implications are recognised and evaluated 25.2 to >22.2 pts Distinction Application of ethical theories/concepts/frame works leads to evaluation, consequences and insights. 22.2 to >19.2 pts Credit Clearly and coherently applies relevant ethical theories/concepts/frame work to relevant issues/contexts of given situation. 19.2 to >14.7 pts Pass Matches the ethical theory/concept/framewo rks to relevant issues of given situation. 14.7 to >0 pts Fail Very limited awareness of ethical theory/concepts/framew orks and how these relate to specific issues and/or discipline specific practice 30 pts Identify, describe and apply aspects of the Australian legal system and statutory bodies to discipline specific practice 20 to >16.8 pts High Distinction Selects key legislation and codes of conduct with insight and synthesises significant and less explored ideas.
