ANA and Ethics?

I need help with a an ethic question. What is your opinion about is there a hierarchy within ANA Code of Ethics values?

Hello, ifunes,

I moved your posts to your own thread in the General Nursing forum.

I am uncertain exactly the nature of your question. Maybe you could pose it again.

Here is a link to the ANA about Nursing Code of Ethics:

Thank you. I want to know if in your opinion, whAt is the principle with most value and why in the ANA code

That might be diffucult to answer, ifunes. I will try.... The respect for human dignity is the first to come to mind. And, I believe it is listed as first in priority. The person must be treated as an individual of worth. If we as nurses do not do this, we are dehumanizing the individual.
