Need help from an experienced Grad on Ethical Dilemma

[mlee9985]

Hello to all Grads....I posted in this forum because I know you guys are a lot more experienced and maybe you guys could help.

I am taking an ethical and legal aspect class. This class is normally for students who are in already in their 3rd nursing semester, but I am taking this class in my very FIRST semester because they said it was only convenient for our schedule to work out, which I think is very unfair because I have not had any clinical experience.

We are required to do a paper based on peer reviewed articles and I need your help in what types of topics I should write about. The topic can be on anything, but it has to have an ETHICAL DILEMMA NOT A CLINICAL DECISION. So a topic that I can find LOTS of ethical articles on would be a real help. And links to some articles would be nice.

I really don't know where to start and how to begin. I am only in the 2nd week of classes and it's my first semester in nursing school. I don't know what kinds of ethical dilemmas can arise.....

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Should agency nurses fill in when staff nurses go on strike?

I chose my topic by looking at the health news on Yahoo regularly. I paid attention to the articles that made me angry. What I ended up writing about was mandatory immunization.

I done my paper on Pro/Con Right to Die. There is sooooooo much information on it was an easy paper! Good luck in whatever you decide to write on.
