EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY
According to Canadian Nurses Association (2016), nursing code of ethics serves as a basis from which to advocate for quality practice environments with the potential to impact the delivery of safe, competent and ethical nursing care. According to the Association, ethical practice is influenced by decisions made at the individual, organizational, regional, national and international levels. In all the levels of decision-making, the ethical code offers guidance for providing care that is congruent with ethical practice.
In their practice, nurses constantly face situations involving ethics. Such situations are addressed in the nursing profession through the use of regulatory mechanisms including the code of ethics. Inherent in nursing is respect for human rights including the right to life, confidentiality, to dignity and to be treated with respect (ICN, 2016). Furthermore, the ICN code of ethics for nurses (2016) affirms that nurses have four fundamental responsibilities, which include promoting health, preventing illness, restoring health and alleviating suffering. Sometimes, nurses are trapped in an ethical dilemma, caught between conflicting duties and responsibilities to clients, employers and to themselves.
