In Module 2, you learned how Mrs. Shulman carried what is called an advance directive in the event that she was unable to express her wishes in a life-or-death situation. Ethical issues in end-of-life situations like this one are consistently ranked as the most frequently occurring challenge by many healthcare professionals and their organizations, and this is where we begin our examination of complex topics next week. This advance directive assignment is designed to help you make a personal connection to the ethical and legal complexities involved in end-of-life decision-making in preparation for this work.
