In your honest opinion, should company policy (in a case like this) be allowed in the U.S. to trump ethical considerations when it comes to human life? In other words, should a company be allowed to prohibit employees from rendering possibly life-saving care out of fear of being sued? Why or why not? Would you work for a company knowing that this is their policy? Be clear and offer sufficient support for your answer! Should it matter that the person in question here was elderly and in a nursing home? In other words, should age or physical condition matter when it comes to rendering potential life-saving help? Why or why not? From the nursing home's perspective, is it reasonable to assume that their "policy of noninterference" (other than to call 911) in a medical emergency extends to other kinds of emergencies? The woman collapsed in the dining hall, so it is not inconceivable that she could have slipped with her knife and cut an artery or slipped on the floor and hit her head. Based on the company's policy and the nurse's obligation to protect her employer, do you feel that the nurse should again simply standby per policy and watch this woman die, or should the nurse be allowed to render CPR in these instances since the chance of survival would likely be greater? Should the circumstances even matter? Why or why not? Again, offer sufficient support for your answer. How do you feel about the nurse's refusal (based on company policies) to allow a bystander to provide CPR in her place since the nurse herself was prohibited by company policy from offering any assistance to this elderly patient in her care? Put yourself in this nurse's shoes for a moment, do you believe that you could uphold company policy, standby, and watch a person die; or, would you step in, knowing that you'll likely be fired for violating policy, and perform CPR regardless? https://youtu.be/sags9HxgRr
