I got the same feeling with you as I was watching the second video. I could not believe the manager on NJ said that all the workers want as little information as possible. I also think it was their responsibility and their job to help teen girls. I did not think about how many times the nurse may send girls to that abortion place before until I saw your post. I think your imagination was true, because she looked like very familiar with how things worked out there. I like your comments on the manager "is just as wrong as the pimp". Actually, I feel like the manager was more sinful than the pimp. As you said in your post that as the manager, she was supposed to knew more, but she helped the pimp anyway.
If i was a medical assistant at the Good Samaritan home my duty-based ethics would make me bring this to someone's attention. Being focused on the individual the things that the young women where doing to the residents was unacceptable. As a healthcare provider it is your
After watching the second video, my answers to the previous two questions would be somewhat different. Seven Planned Parenthood positions showed the same problem as they would like to help on hiding child abuse means there were certainly something wring in the organization, at least the organization was facing serious issues on management. Besides this, the organization was obviously did not train the stuffs correctly. Originally, I thought the nurse in the first video was a rare case in such a big organization; however, when I heard the manager in NJ place said that all workers want as little information as possible, I think it was already the norm in the whole organization. Moreover, before I say this, I have to make it clear that I am not
The issue of abortion is one of the most sensitive and controversial issues faced by modern societies. This issue leads to topics of whether abortion is right or wrong, if it is the actual killing of a person, and what actually defines the moral status of a fetus. In this paper, I will be arguing against Bonnie Steinbock, who believes that abortions are morally acceptable. So I will be supporting the view that abortions are not morally acceptable.
One of the most contentious issues in America, abortion, is still discussed on a daily basis. Women should be able to make their own decision with their bodies because it involves their bodies, health, and futures. Conversely, one of America’s presidential candidates wants to repeal Roe v. Wade, which allows women to make their own intimate decision. In one of his recent speeches, Donald Trump states that women who seek abortion should be subject to “some form of punishment” (Flegenheimer, et al.). Trump was highly criticized for making this statement, but he continued to mention that ripping a baby out of the womb on the last day of pregnancy is immoral. Trump seems to misunderstand that most abortions happen during the first trimester of
The topic for this discussion board was initially intended to be about a specific interest group we wanted to see go away, so perhaps we have gone beyond the purpose of the discussion board by debating the morality of abortion itself. Despite this, I would like to continue the discussion because I find it interesting.
Abortion has been a highly debated topic for many years. Until 1973, when abortion was legalized in the U.S., women were obtaining very dangerous abortions that often killed them in the process. Although abortion is legal now, members of society still do not agree on whether it is “right.” There are pros and cons of abortion, which can be examined by the three theoretical perspectives; Structural Functionalism, Conflict Theory, and Postmodern Theory. This essay explains what the three theoretical perspectives are and how they view the social issue of abortion.
An 18 year old girl gets pregnant and can’t decide whether to keep the baby or have an abortion. Her parents are very religious and do not believe in sex before marriage therefore would not take to kindly to their daughter being pregnant.
Abortion has always been a controversial topic in the United States for decades. Abortion is like taking the life of someone without their permission so it is technically “murder”. There is no such thing as an unwanted child, millions of families in the United States are always willing to adopt. On the other hand, there are circumstances where a woman can barely care and sustain herself so chances are that she will not be able to take care of her child. Or when a rape occurs, having an abortion is not as bad as when a woman has sex without protection and knows she has the chance to get pregnant.
The world is full of controversial issues such as abortion, same-sex marriage, terrorism, the death penalty, global warming, legalizing marijuana, healthcare, plastic surgery, illiteracy, use of stem cells, and much more. People will continue arguing about these topics. According to studies, it shows that four out of ten American women’s pregnancies are terminated by abortion (Induced Abortion in the United States). Sondra Forsyth, a journalist, wrote stories about three teens that got pregnant and their process of making the decision to have an abortion or not. These three young women had to make a difficult decision about whether to get an abortion or to keep their baby. One woman decided to keep her baby and the other two teens decided to
Before researching on abortion issues, I never imagined it to be such controversial and debatable case because the problem arises from the very early stages of analyzing what administrative ethics would answer. I became overwhelmed to start because my mind became blurred on legality and ethics of abortion as early as defining administrative ethics: “well-based standards of right and wrong prescribing what public administrators ought to do in terms of duty to public service, principles, virtues, and benefits to society”. Ethics triangle is grounded on duties in the center with principles, virtues, and benefits to society augmenting it. Duties of public administrator involves those ‘obligations taken on while assuming a position’. They might
Our society is filled with numerous ethical dilemmas. We are consistently bombarded with ethical issues daily. At times, these ethical dilemmas are virtually impossible to unravel. I believe the topic of abortion is one of the most difficult and controversial issues in today’s society. It is also the one people are most passionate about as it continues to be scrutinized by two groups, holding fast to different perspectives; Pro-Life versus Pro-Choice.
This paper will explore the number of abortions being performed, why they are being performed and, also should it remain legal to have an abortion? In 2013 over 664,000 legal abortions was reported to the CDC from 49 different areas. In 2013 the abortion ratio was 12.5 per 1000 women. (Abortion Surveilence 2013, n.d.) In 2013 health research funding reported that lest than 1% of these abortions were due to rape or incest. Now if we just sit back and look at these numbers they are astounding. That is 664,000 lives took with someone else deciding their life.

Many women that choose to have an abortion do not realize that it is a dangerous surgery with serious side effects. These side effects are both physical and psychological. Having an abortion is unnatural and interrupts this function of the human body. “The women’s body naturally resists the abortion, causing physical and emotional problems” (“Who does Abortion Affect?”). Almost all of the women who had abortions feel that they have made the wrong decision. The women are not informed about the side effects of abortion. Many women that had abortions said their doctors gave “little or no information about the potential health risks
The teacher explained that every Thursday we were going to have a debate in the classroom. The idea seemed a bit strange to me since we were in our third year of medical class and we had not clearly mastered how all the body systems work or how too fully scrub up before going into the NICU. However, I knew that our teacher also being a registered nurse out of school knew what she was doing and had a logical purpose behind having a full on debate every Thursday. I certainly never had a problem talking in front of people before, but this time the idea frightened me because no one I knew was part of this medical class.
