NUR 601 Remediation Exam Mngt of Care
Question 1
pts
A client with leukemia is being considered for a bone marrow transplant. The
healthcare
team is discussing the risks and benefits of this treatment and other possible
treatments with the goal of inflicting the least possible harm on the client.
Which principle of healthcare ethics is the team practicing?
Justice
Fidelity
Nonmaleficence
Autonomy
Rationale: Nonmaleficence is the avoidance of hurt or harm. Remember that
in healthcare ethics, ethical practice involves not only the will to do good but
also the equal commitment to do no harm. Healthcare professionals try to
balance the risks and benefits of a plan of care while striving to do the least
possible harm. Justice refers to fairness and equity and ensuring fair
allocation of resources, such as nursing care for all clients. Fidelity is the
keeping of promises made to clients, families, and other healthcare
professionals. Autonomy refers to a person’s independence and represents
an agreement to respect another’s right to determine his or her course of
action.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the subject - the ethical principle being
utilized. Recall the definition of each item in the options. Note the
relationship of the words “least possible harm” in the question and the
definition of nonmaleficence. Review: principles of healthcare ethics.

of illness acuity.

professionals. Autonomy is a person’s independence. Respecting another’s
autonomy means that you are agreeing to respect that person’s right to
determine his or her course of action. Justice refers to fairness and equity,
including fair allocation of resources, such as nursing care for all clients.
