Nurses at all practice levels can be faced with challenging decisions and may encounter ethical practice dilemmas. MSN professional nurses need to understand how to evaluate actions as they relate to scope of practice and ethics. Evaluating action outcomes will help examine ethics in everyday practice, scope of practice, and decision-making contexts. Nurse leaders will need to lead and mentor others in effective decision making. This will guide ethical comportment in practice and enhance role model abilities for future nursing leaders.
Scenario
Imagine you have accepted a leadership position in a professional organization. Select an organization that will match well with your anticipated future MSN role and setting. For this assignment we will use the Emergency Nurses Association (ENA).
At your professional organization, a committee decided to create a blog on their website to share information with members and visitors. The committee identified ethics as the first topic of discussion. The blog post will be directed to an audience of members who are MSN prepared. You have been tasked with posting the first blog. The committee requests you include ethical comportment, the role of ethics in scope of practice, and the influence on decision making.
Prompt
Identify a professional organization to provide context for your blog post. Consider the members of the professional organization as the audience for your post.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Ethical Comportment: Discuss ethical comportment in relation to a professional organization. Remember the audience of your blog post and begin by defining ethical comportment for the reader of your blog. Then explain an example of ethical behavior in the context of nursing practice to support your discussion.
Ethics and Scope of Practice: Evaluate the relationship between ethics and MSN professional nursing scope of practice. Include the nurse practice act in your evaluation. Be sure to address the following questions in your work:
