A patient who is known to forget things and is terminally ill refuses resuscitation, how can ethical principles be related to this?, and how does this relate to legal issues?
Lets talk about autonomy, consent, and other principles such as beneficence, maleficence, utilitarianism etc.
How does this ethical issues affect the nurses who are supposed to work in the best interest of the patient? It could be that the patient is not fully aware of their choices even when it appears that he/she is.
