Ethics: Emphasis Across the Curriculum

Nurses are key to quality care within the health care system, yet they continue to struggle with the daily challenges of providing beneficent care to their patients. It is not uncommon for nurses to feel disenfranchised and powerless when they perceive unresolved suffering and distress on a daily basis. Indeed, questions often revolve around informed consent, allocation of finite resources (including staffing), end-of-life, and miscommunication among other issues. It is expected that “Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health care professionals, in redesigning health care in the United States.” (IOM Report). However, to meet this goal, we must first understand the daily ethical challenges that nurses’ face that impact the patient-provider relationship and the strategies necessary to improve care within the system.
