Download or read book Nurses and COVID-19: Ethical Considerations in Pandemic Care written by Connie M. Ulrich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-25 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the many ethical issues and extraordinary risks that nurses and others are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic, which creates physical, emotional, and economic burdens, affecting nurses' overall health and well-being. Nurses are essential front-line clinicians across all health care settings and in every nation. The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel SARs-CoV-2 virus has affected children, adults, and communities within and across all societies. Nurses, too, have contracted the virus and died from the disease. They have also seen their colleagues, family members, and friends hospitalized or in intensive care units struggling to survive. Nursing’s professionalism and disciplinary resolve to care for patients and families amidst confusion, misinformation, and shifting guidelines has been called “heroic” by the public. How much risk should nurses be expected to accept during a pandemic? How do nurses help patients and families find comfort and dignity at the end-of-life? How do we help nurses who are suffering from moral distress and mental health concerns from what they have seen, been asked to do, or are unable to provide? And, how does society move forward from a pandemic that has challenged our basic ethical principles of justice and what is “fair, good and right” in caring for those who need care, including the most vulnerable and nurses themselves? This book addresses these and other ethical concerns that nurses are facing in their day-to-day clinical practice; experiences shared with patients, families, and colleagues. Although this book was written while the pandemic was still raging across the United States and globally, the events needed to be told as they were unfolding. This book helps us to learn from both the successes and failures that are affecting so many across the globe, including those on whom the public relies on to provide quality, compassionate, and expert care when they are sick: nurses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that the COVID 19 pandemic asks for a a global approach to bioethics. it describes how the pandemic affects the experience of being in a world that is intrinsically characterized by global connectivity. It demonstrates that a moral vision is necessary to articulate this experience of connectedness. Subsequently, a perspective of global bioethics is introduced, which provides a broader framework than mainstream bioethics, since it highlights the significance of both vulnerability and solidarity. Through a unique global perspective the book addresses the moral challenges of the pandemic, and places the confrontation with death, disease and disability within a wider framework of ethical concerns. This book is of important in the public debate on infectious diseases, and of relevance to health professionals, global health educators, public health experts,as well as policy makers.

Download or read book Ethics and Pandemics written by Andrew Sola and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for readers who wish to understand the ethical implications of the COVID-19 pandemic — holistically — on communities, politics, the economy, the environment, international relations, public health, and, most importantly, on their own lives and their own futures. It also helps readers to think through the wide-ranging ethical implications of the new age of global pandemics. The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed all of our lives to such an extent that no single publication will ever be able to capture its complexity. The book acknowledges this complexity by embracing interdisciplinary dialogue. It is open to diverse points of view, different ethical systems, and a wide variety of academic disciplines. It suggests three broad avenues to exploring the subject: Ethics for Pandemics: What ethical theories are useful for pandemic living? Ethics in Pandemics: How are long-standing ethical dilemmas revealed in pandemics? Ethics of Pandemics: How should politicians and public health professionals create ethical systems of pandemic management? Interdisciplinary perspectives are another key feature of the book and reflect the important insights that many academic disciplines — medical ethics and public health, history, political science, economics, behavioral and evolutionary psychology, and climate science — bring to bear on the subject. In the chapters, the author joins theory and practice, providing an overview of the major ethical theories: Kant and Deontology Utilitarianism and Consequentialist Ethics Social Contract Theory Egoism and Altruism Virtue Ethics It then uses these theories to analyze both COVID-19 and also historical pandemics, including typhus, smallpox, the Black Death, HIV/AIDS, and polio. Ethics and Pandemics: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on COVID-19 and Future Pandemics prepares readers to better understand ethical living during times of crisis. While written for students pursuing any discipline, it is particularly suited for those seeking degrees in public health, health care, political science, and philosophy. Furthermore, non-specialized readers and members of the general public will find the book of interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioethics has long been accepted as an interdisciplinary field. The recent 'empirical turn' in bioethics is, however, creating challenges that move beyond those of simple interdisciplinary collaboration, as researchers grapple with the methodological, empirical and meta-ethical challenges of combining the normative and the empirical, as well as navigating the difficulties that can arise from attempts to transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries. Empirical Bioethics: Theoretical and Practical Perspectives brings together contributions from leading experts in the field which speak to these challenges, providing insight into how they can be understood and suggestions for how they might be overcome. Combining discussions of meta-ethical challenges, examples of different methodologies for integrating empirical and normative research, and reflection on the challenges of conducting and publishing such work, this book will both introduce the novice to the field and challenge the expert.

Download or read book An Ethics of Clinical Uncertainty written by Mary Ann G. Cutter and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the ethical implications of managing uncertainty in clinical decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic. It develops an ethics of clinical uncertainty that brings together insights from the clinical and biomedical ethical literatures. The book sets out to recognize the central role uncertainty plays in clinical decision-making and to acknowledge the different levels, kinds, and dimensions of clinical uncertainty. It also aims to aid clinicians and patients in managing clinical uncertainty and to recognize the ethical duty they have to manage clinical uncertainty. The book addresses four ethical duties related to clinical uncertainty: (1) to advance the welfare of those in clinical medicine, (2) to respect the rights of those in clinical medicine, (3) to promote just access to health care, and (4) to care for one another in clinical medicine. These duties took on select urgency during the COVID-19 pandemic because clinical risk assessments about COVID-19 were limited, we were asked to give informed consent in the context of limited and changing knowledge, the pandemic unearthed myriad problems about the distribution of health care, and the pandemic raised questions about how we care for each other in medicine. An Ethics of Clinical Uncertainty will appeal to scholars, advanced students, and medical professionals working in philosophy of medicine, biomedical ethics, clinical medicine, nursing, public health care, and gerontology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains original essays that look at contagious/infectious disease pandemics and the ethical public policy and administration these have entailed. In particular, the pandemics of the 1918 flu pandemic, HIV in the 1990s, SARS in 2003, Ebola from 2014–2016 and the novel COVID-19 in 2020 are highlighted. The contributions in this work offer the reader insights in these and several other recent pandemics that present differently—either via contagion or mortality rate—and how each should be addressed by countries of various sorts. This book is a must for the ongoing debate on how we should treat public health crises, such as the one we have all just encountered in the novel COVID-19 pandemic.

Book excerpt: In June 2020, The Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity presented an online conference entitled Bioethics in Real Life: Lessons We're Learning from COVID-19. This volume collects the proceedings of that timely conference, which examined an array of bioethical considerations arising from the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.The chapters in this edited volume examine developments arising from the ways in which various theoretical and philosophical aspects of bioethics have been challenged, confirmed, or even torn apart by on-the-ground, real-life experiences amid this pandemic. While this is certainly not the world's first pandemic, COVID-19 is unique in the experience of modern medicine, not least because of the interconnectedness of a globalized world. It has tested surge capacity and has raised the prospect of difficult, truly life-and-death triage decisions.Questions addressed by the works in this volume include: In what ways do we better understand the goals of medicine as well as the role of physicians and other healthcare providers in a time of pandemic? What are the implications of attempts to locate effective therapies and vaccines during an ongoing crisis? How have our ideas regarding moral distress and injury been impacted? What does the experience of pandemic look like within communities that deal with ongoing issues of marginalization? What theological resources might be brought to bear on questions like these in light of our recent experience?The Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity's annual conference is the leading venue for Christian bioethical engagement, providing opportunities for equipping and education as well as professional development and academic engagement across a variety of disciplines and professional contexts.

Download or read book Ethical Dilemmas and Future Implications of COVID-19 written by H. Russell Searight and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-19 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has ushered ethics to the forefront of both medical education and public discourse. In addition to illuminating persistent moral questions about fairness, access to healthcare, and citizens' responsibilities to one another's well-being, the pandemic emerged within the context of profound social divisions and disagreements regarding core values. This book explores subjects that have been accorded less attention, such as the implications of surveillance, the moral dimensions of conspiracy theories, and the moral distress and injury that have led many healthcare professionals to rethink their vocation. Each chapter of the volume presents the background and research surrounding specific moral dilemmas, e.g., school closures, rationing, privacy, and surveillance. These issues are subsequently examined within the context of various ethical models, including utilitarianism, deontology, virtue ethics, moral foundations theory, principlism, Rawls's theory of justice, and communitarianism. The book will be beneficial to students of health professions, philosophy, bioethics, and for those who value informed citizenship.
