Preparing the assignment

Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions.

1) An ethical dilemma with opposing positions will be assigned by your instructor.

2) Although you may not agree with one of the positions, reflect on your views, respect other perspectives, and examine scholarly literature on both positions.

3) When faced with ethical dilemmas, nurses often find conflict or differences in values. It is important for nurses to explore their own values in order to respect other’s values and differences. A section for self‐reflection is included in this assignment as the last page of the paper and it will not be graded for APA style.

4) Write a 3‐5 page paper (not including the title page, reference page, and the reflection) using APA format.

5) Use this link to take you directly to the ANA website to access the Code of Ethics. When prompted, choose “No I do not wish to register at this time. Take me to the Code now.”
