2. Define and explain the ethical theory you chose (show me you know exactly what the theory is and does – in your own words)

It should not just be writing down your first reaction or what you already know.Reflection involves critical thinking, which means rethinking your existing knowledge and previously held opinions in light of what we have learned about theories of ethics, logic, and reasoning. You will need to question your current knowledge and beliefs.Discuss the main points of the debate, what stance you take, support that stance, and discuss the opposing argument. Also discuss an ethical theory that would apply to defend your view.To complete each scenario assignment:

1. Complete the entire scenario.
2. Compose your reflection in a Word document and be sure to address, at a minimum, the following questions:
   • Why do you feel the way you do about the issue presented?
   • Of the four responses offered in the scenario, which do you think is the most ethical and why?
3. Support your conclusions with evidence and specific examples from the textbook, including a minimum of one theory of ethics to defend your stance.

THE QUESTION OF TOPIC IN THE SCENARIO IS WHAT IMMEDIATE COURSE OR COURSES OF ACTION SHOULD WE TAKE TO SLOW THE SPREAD OF HIV AND AIDS IN AFRICA?

BOTH DOCTORS VIEW IS UPLOADED IN THE FILE BELOW***

Purpose 

Discuss potential complications in a clinical scenario at an out-patient family practice. Students will explore potential effects on patient outcomes and implications for members of the heath care team as a result of conflict among the healthcare team.  Students will develop strategies that result in prevention of untoward outcomes that result in a positive practice culture. 

Requirements:

You are a family nurse practitioner working in an outpatient primary care office of a large hospital system. The practice has been operating for over 15 years, and many of the administrative and clinical staff were hired when the practice opened. You have been in the practice for less than 3 months. In that short amount of time, you have witnessed several of the clinical staff engaging in heated arguments with each other, sometimes in patient areas. You overhear an argument occurring today between two staff. You pick up a patient’s chart and notice a very low blood pressure that the medical assistant failed to notify you about. When you confront the MA, she states that she was going to report the vital signs to you when she became engaged in the heated argument you overheard and forgot to notify you. 

Unfortunately, this pattern of behavior is not unusual in this practice. Working with staff who cannot cooperate effectively can negatively influence your ability to spend time with patients, can impede the flow of patients through the office, and could impact patient safety. 

Case Study Responses: 

1. Analyze the case study for potential issues for members of the healthcare team from office conflict. Contrast the potential effects for each member of the healthcare team based upon the required readings from the week. Discuss the potential ethical and legal implications for each of the following practice members: 
   • Medical assistant 
   • Nurse Practitioner 
   • Medical Director 
   • Practice 
2. What strategies would you implement to prevent further episodes of potentially dangerous patient outcomes? 
3. What leadership qualities would you apply to effect positive change in the practice? Focus on the culture of the practice.
4. A scholarly resource must be used for EACH discussion question each week.
