Decision Making Capacity Discussion
My strengths are the ability to listen and empathize with my patients, no matter their backgrounds. But I have learned through the years not to engage in spiritual talks unless the person brings it up first. This may be a weakness on my part, in terms of witnessing to others, but I have learned that those who are not seeking will often reject what is said to them while trying to convince others of their views.
I am blessed to have well educated people in my life, and a family I trust to make decisions for me, should anything happen. I feel that in the event I end up incapacitated with an uncertainty to my recovery, it would be the lives of my family members burdened by mine, and they should have the final say in what happens to me – or if I even get treated. Yes, I believe doctors have the obligation to treat patients who are likely to make a recovery, but ultimately, I believe that patients who are oriented should be able to accept or refuse any treatment. In terms of family members choosing refusal of care for someone who would most likely recover, I believe that the hospital should petition the court for guardianship
Nursing Profession Discussion
I need help with a Health & Medical question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.
Comment this
The nursing profession is composed of nurses from all cultures and even from other countries. To believe that nurses, even those working for religious organization, are religious, would be erroneous. While many of us do not side with a particular religion, we should be aware of the spiritual or religious needs of our patients and in some instances their families. One of the strength I have would be the ability to identify those patients needs and more particularly identify the appropriate person to talk to them. In cases where our Spiritual care department is not available, contacting a person from the patient’s church or spiritual circle, would be the most appropriate intervention.
If I were the patient, I would have the say in my care and interventions. I have the ability to advocate for myself and my family. In the difficult times the only person who would be able to make decisions regarding my care would be my wife. Because my wife aligns with my beliefs, she would be the most indicated person to make ethical decision-making of my care.
