Ethics for Nursing and Healthcare Practice

Very good text which covers all the theory.

I like the section on 'individual conscience approach to ethics'. We also relate the virtue ethics section in our simulation projects and other experiential learning that we relate in terms of nurse leadership.

A useful text which looks at core theories in ethics but considers contemporary practice issues.

not suitable for course

The concepts of trust and judgment are fundamental to the practice of all healthcare practitioners. These concepts, amongst others, permeate the discussions in this text in a sensible and readable way and make me feel that all carers should access this useful text.

A good book relevant. Easy to read

An easy yo navigate and read text addressing the issues realting to ethics in nursing practice.
The case examples throughout the book provide additional things to consider and the additional online materials are useful sources of to develop learning further.
The comlpexity of ethics, morals and socialogy are tied together to provide a useful infomrative textbook.

This book has a lot of examples and discussion to illustrate how ethical theories, the law etc are used. I think it will help students to understand the differences between different concepts and how they can be applied to nursing practice.

Recommended to Post registered nurses

Am not keen on the format of the book and I found it very text heavy.
