The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you  into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for  knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical  analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two  worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your  choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to  you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism,  Shintoism, etc.

In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions  in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2  of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have  outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis  from each perspective.

In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based  upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with  insights gained from your research, and answering the following  questions based on the research:

  1. How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and  suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is  there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical  malady?)
  2. In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think  about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
  3. What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on  in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
  4. Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
  5. Finally, present and defend your own view.

Support your position by referencing at least three academic  resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course  readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each  religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references  are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate  the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA  Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is  required.

Provide support for your statements with full APA in-text citations from a minimum of ten (10) scholarly references—five of these references must be from outside sources and five may be from course readings, lectures, and textbooks.

Develop a summary of the risks for T.J., so that the facility can respond to those risks and provide a safe environment.

/in /by

T.J. is a 76-year-old man that recently lost his wife.  He lives alone now in an ALF where he has some friends that he associates with.  They are “good for his overall well-being” claims the administrators of the facility who befriended T.J. when he lost his wife six months ago.  The facility that T.J. lives in is convenient for many aspects of his life, including entertainment and even some of the healthcare associates from neighboring clinics that have partnered with the facility to allow visits with the residents.

Over the years, the associates from the neighboring clinic have grown close to some residents and have followed them during some of their crisis, both emotional and physical.  Christine, a nurse practitioner from a neighboring clinic, has followed T.J. for many years and is now assessing his fall risk through a tool called the “Hendrick Fall Risk Tool II” a popular means of assessing the fall risk that may exist for an elderly person.

An entry by the ARNP recently on T.J. demonstrated that there was enough information, recognizing previous and present knowledge to utilize the tool to give T.J. a score representing his fall risk.  the entry reads: “T.J. is a 76-year-old that is evaluated today for his fall risk. He has a MedHx of BPH, COPD, seizures, eczema, and anxiety.  He has been seen monthly and he described some episodes of nocturia that still persists.  A list of his recent mediation includes Alprazolam, Phenytoin, Dutasteride, and ibuprofen prn.  By administering the Get Up and Go Test, we find that he only had a brief episode of not being able to rise but he performed well after that completing it in 12 seconds.  He demonstrates an improvement in his depression experienced in the past exhibited for several months after the loss of his spouse.  His friends at the facility keep him busy and he is much improved in his outlook for the future.”  C. Miller ARNP
