Current Ethical Issues

Today’s justice professionals are in the public eye more than ever. There are a multitude of devices out there that allow civilians to capture every move a street officer makes. It is more crucial now than ever that these officers arm themselves with the knowledge of ethics along with the items on their utility belt. The wrong choice in any decision a justice professional makes will have the public ready and willing to lash out. These difficult ethical decisions are all part of the job that they have taken. Taking the time to learn about what is right and wrong is essential to their positions in society.

The field of ethics (or moral philosophy) involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior. Philosophers today usually divide ethical theories into three general subject areas:

There are many ethical dilemmas that occur daily in our hospitals across the world. Not everyone agrees with standards and policies that are required in hospitals or even with the law. If not everyone obeys the law, ethical cases form. In Springfield, Missouri, a holistic nurse got fired for fighting against Cox South hospital policies. Carla Brock has been a nurse at Cox South hospital and not only refused the flu shot, but also refused to wear a mask. She refused due to religious beliefs, she gets short of breath while wearing the mask, and she feels the mask is meant to intimidate and humiliate those who refuse the shot. The ethical question in this case study is to decide if Carla should have been fired for not wearing a mask after refusing the flu shot and what are other potential proposals.

The code of silence, however prevalent within a department, is a reality.

On controversial ethical issues, I am a universalist believing in my viewpoints of ethical issues such as abortion, euthanasia are non-negotiables. For controversial ethical issues I would not waiver against the ethical issues however, I realize not everyone has the same viewpoint. I believe it is important to create laws and regulations for society to comply to provide guidelines to contend with controversial issues which disrupt the humans and society. The viewpoint of the universalist and relativists are clearly different on the ethical issues of abortion and euthanasia.

An abortion is the termination of a human pregnancy, which is mostly done before 24 weeks of the pregnancy. There are two different ways to get an abortion, depending at the stage of the pregnancy. One of the ways of having an abortion, is to have it done surgically. The main method of this procedure, which is the vacuum aspiration or also known as the suction curettage, which is really common here in New Zealand. The other method is medical abortion, where at the early stages of the pregnancy, you would take pills rather than having surgery. After performing these the procedures, the foetus dies which people in the Catholic community see as murder, because they’re new life that has been brought into the world, which is one of the reasons why this is an ethical issue still to this day.

6% of Americans say that the moral and ethical decline is the country’s biggest issue. On the other hand, this means that the other 94% think that other, bigger obstacles, are more important.

Ethical issues can be many different situations, so you need to govern yourself based on the morals of the situation. Understanding the situation fully, will allow you to realize the consequences of your actions. Each person ethical issue can be different based on the back ground, cultural, values and beliefs.

In this case, I saw as a bioethicist that there was a child brought into to hospital saying that the child had an asthma attack. But the doctor, Dr. Kildaire, checked the child and found out that the child had burns on the child’s chest. She assumes that the burns are due to child abuse. She asked the child, but the child does not communicate well in English, the doctor assumes he is Vietnamese.
