Write a thesis-centered essay of at least 500 words in response to this one question.

You have until 11:45 p.m. (a quarter to midnight) on Friday, May 15th to compose, revise, and proofread your work.

You may use a paper dictionary and any notes you have taken on the readings to assist you.

Remember to:

Develop a thesis that takes a clear stance or position to answer the question.

Organize your thoughts–an outline can help you do this.

Use MLA in-text citation to support your claim with quotes or paraphrases from BOTH Maya Angelou and Sherman Alexie. (You must use at least one cited idea from each reading.)

Discuss how your citations and ideas are relevant to your thesis.

Union Carbide Corporation and Bhopal

/in /by

Read the Union Carbide Corporation and Bhopal case that begins on page 384 of your Business, Government, and Society textbook. In lieu of answering the questions that follow the case, you will respond to the prompt below;

Consider the concerns as described in this case and prepare a memorandum that addresses the concerns described below. Your memo should be completed in narrative form (you may use headings if you choose to do so for organizational purposes, but do not list your responses in bullet form). Minimum page length: 6 pages; Maximum page length: 10 pages (double spaced).

Identify all of the potential ethical issues you see (if any). Describe and analyze the implications of each issue, including who or what were affected by the company’s response. In identifying issues and addressing their implications, your discussion should be as comprehensive as possible—you should consider any economic, social, or ecological implications.

Additionally, your analysis should thoroughly identify and discuss at least two potential courses of action that the company could have taken with respect to each issue you have discussed. Clearly demonstrate your reasoning process—identify and explain any ethical principles or arguments you are relying on; do not simply state unsupported conclusions.

If you choose to apply any approaches to ethical reasoning that you learned about in this course, clearly state what they are and how you are applying them to this case. Of the possible solutions you identified, which would you recommend that the company should have adopted as a resolution? Again, fully explain and justify your recommendations. Finally, explain how you would implement each solution you have recommended.

Journal Reflections

/in /by

Assignment 2 will be comprised of five Journal Reflections. You will complete the journal entries and submit your answers within this assignment. This assignment should be completed in ONE document, and your answers should be separated by Journal Reflection # headings (1-5).  Please contact your instructor using Canvas Messages with any questions you may have.

Journal Reflection #1 & 2
Provision 1: The nurse, in all professional relationships, practices with compassion and respect for the inherent dignity, worth and uniqueness of every individual, unrestricted by considerations of social or economic status, personal attributes, or the nature of health problems.

The world is made up of numerous types of people, cultures, societies, worldviews, religions, opinions, and values. This is part of what makes humanity unique, special, complex, and prone to conflict. The very thing that brings beauty to mankind can make it difficult for people to coincide in peace with one another. Consider for a moment the differences of each person below.

Person A Born in London, she is 88 years old. She has lived in six different countries, has had two marriages and four children, and has been the CEO of a large financial trading company.
Person B Born in LA, California, she is 23 years old. She has two children, and currently works night shift at a local casino.
Person C Born in Oklahoma, he is 43 years old. He is married with two children and works as a local pastor in a large denomination church.
Person D Born in New England, he is 33 years old. He is not married and has no children. He resides at a federal detention center, having been sentenced to a 25-year prison term for a crime he says he did not commit.
Person A has a medical diagnosis of dementia, Person B has ovarian cancer, Person C has HIV, Person D has a self-inflicted abdominal wound.

Are you surprised to learn of each persons diagnosis? How may some people treat each person differently because of their diagnosis?

Define the dignity and respect of the term in your own words. Give three examples of how a nurse can show dignity and respect to a patient regardless of social, economic status, or medical diagnosis. Why is it difficult to treat people with dignity and respect?

Journal Reflection #3 & 4
Provision 2: The nurses primary commitment is to the patient, whether an individual, family, group or community.

In a changing medical world that is continually advancing and demanding more from all involved, priorities can get mixed up and patients can be forgotten. Consider the following two scenarios.

Scenario 1: A 10-year-old child has suffered a motor vehicle accident. Due to multiple traumas associated with the injury, the patient is now ventilator-dependent, G-tube dependent, and shows little activity on the EKG beyond consistent seizures. (This means the patient cannot breathe on his own, cannot eat on his own, and brain testing shows little activity but confirms frequent seizure activity). The mother of the child is ready to withdrawal care for palliation purposes. The father is committed to providing every medical intervention possible to sustain the childs life.

Who is the nurse responsible for in this scenario, the patient, the parents, or both? Who is right in this scenario, the mother or the father? You must pick a side and build an argument to support your answer, the credit will not be given if you do not pick a side, and there is no middle ground. Can the nurse be truly objective in this situation? How could the emotions of the nurse affect patient care?

Scenario 2: A 17-year-old patient has Duchenne muscular dystrophy complicated with multi-organ failure. The patient is neurologically alert but again has entered multi-organ failure. From a medical perspective, there is no way to save the patients life. The 17-year-old patient will die soon. The parents have decided to not tell the patient about the decline in his condition. Instead, they have asked the medical staff to stay upbeat and optimistic, encouraging the patient to work toward getting better.

Is the nurse ethically obligated to tell the patient about the decline in his condition, or is the nurse ethically obligated to honor the parents wishes? Again, pick a side, build an argument, and articulate your perspective.

Journal Reflection #5
Provision 3: The nurse promotes, advocates for, and strives to protect the health, safety, and rights of the patient.

Being the voice of the patient is a key concept of nurse advocacy. This topic will be discussed more thoroughly later in the course. Respond to the following question.

Create a Bill of Rights for the patient. Include six rights that should be given to every patient and explain why you picked each one. There are many bills of rights for patients that already exist, your work will be checked for plagiarism, so just do not do it. This is easy; you pick the six most important rights and build a case as to why they are important.
