The decision-making process itself involves a number of challenges for a person at the end of life, which makes it one of the concerns surrounding the end of life that I find challenging. One of my values or beliefs that make an impact on my decision making regarding the issue is honesty and courage. Autonomy, a person's ability to act in line with their own values and interests, is one of the ethical principles and theories that may be applied to these end-of-life situations. Patients come first when making decisions, especially when they are nearing the end of their lives. For example, a medical treatment may not work at some time, and at that moment, when autonomy is in effect, the patient must make a decision. My thoughts on the end of life have changed since I began this semester's ethics class because, up until this point, I was unaware of the many end-of-life issues that patients and the medical staff face.
