Nursing Ethics for Modern Healthcare explores the field of nursing ethics in the context of recent global healthcare events. The text addresses the ethical challenges that have been intensified by the COVID pandemic, such as safe staffing ratios, resource allocation, and accountability in patient care delivery. It helps to clarify complex ethical topics for nursing students set to embark on their careers in the post-COVID era.
The book addresses ethics in nursing by reflecting on changes that emerged since the pandemic. Individual chapters cover ethical decision-making, ethics and professional nursing practice, ethics in the context of working with specific populations, including children and adolescents, older adults, end-of-life care, and psychiatric patients. The closing chapter considers the future of ethics within nursing practice. The book features teambuilding exercises in each chapter that encourage group cooperation among students—a critical skill for nurses. Additional elements include key terms, chapter objectives, and NCLEX-style review questions.
Nursing Ethics for Modern Healthcare is ideal for undergraduate courses within the nursing curriculum.
