Apply relevant ethical principles to a case scenario from your past clinical practice or from one discussed in the
lecture (more points considered for own example/scenario). We can make up a scenario as long as its
believable and simple.
This assignment will incorporate professional reflection of the student’s experience. Within your reflective
essay:
• Provide a brief summary of your selected case study (setting the scene);
• Briefly compare and contrast differences between moral and ethical reasoning from your scenario;
• Outline and apply specific ethical principles to your scenario that may assist in guiding your subsequent
nursing care.
Referencing is essential for this reflective essay, as students are required to seek confirmation of learning with
the literature. For example, this may include best practice documents, journal and research articles, texts,
hospital polices and guidelines, legislations, registration authority documents, to name a few. Your writing
should demonstrate evidence of your skills as a reflective practitioner, highlighting your ability to reflect on
events in an analytical and critical way
