Directions:
You are working the night shift in the Intensive Care Unit. Your patient starts to deteriorate, and the primary provider is not calling you back. The charge nurse offers to contact her. A few minutes later, the charge nurse shows you a text from her personal phone with orders for the client, supposedly from the provider.
Main post:
- What would you do in that situation and why?
- Give an example of an ethical dilemma involving confidentiality and the use of technology.
- How would you respond to the situation in your example?
Peer replies:
- For your replies, provide classmates with an alternative intervention for the ethical dilemma
- Include well-researched the rationale for using the intervention.
