Pet Peeves and Ethics

People from all walks of life face many ethical dilemmas. These dilemmas have consequences. Our worldview determines how we deal with these dilemmas, and guides us to the right decisions. In this essay, I will examine an ethical issues through my Christian worldview. I will also present other viewpoints, and compare them to mine.

If Emanuel accepts the offer he benefits greatly because he will be able to complete his assignments efficiently in his dorm room instead of using the college library but Microsoft will not profit and the roommate will have broken the law and potentially receive a penalty or fine for sharing a licensed product. But if Emanuel denies his roommates offer and

An ethical dilemma is a situation in which one need to select from two or more morally acceptable choices or between equally unacceptable actions when one option prevents selection of the other (Ong, Yee & Lee, 2012). An example for an ethical dilemma in the moral values related to health policy is the end of life issues. One of the end of life issues includes withholding and withdrawing the medical treatment. Passive euthanasia is the act of withdrawing life supports or interventions needed to keep a patient alive (American Academy of Physician Assistants, 2014). This is usually done according to the wish of the patient. Patients who do not want to receive resuscitative treatment will opt out of these treatment measures and obtain a do-not-resuscitate

Someone came to my job before my shift was over to watch out for me and inform me of everything she had heard Johnnie and affliates were after. This person warned me to "watch my back, to never be alone, and that whenever I go out whether it was work or anywhere else to not leave anywhere until I made sure my ride arrived ." If someone overhears all this and is friends with

For this excerise, my partner and I decided to go with option A. The norm we decided to violate was staring at someone's screen. Simar and I went to the IC on Tuesday afternoon and took turns watching over peoples backs. While Simar stood behind our subject and waited for them to notice her, I sat close by to observe the subject's reaction. We decided to minimize the conversation and give one word replies if we were spoken to. We did not initiate conversation and avoided making eye-contact to ensure we dont laugh. Regardless of how the subjects reacted, we stared at each screen for 30 seconds to ensure consistency.

The boundless potential of tomorrow's artificial intelligence is plighted by the hurdle of ethical conundrums. While robot weapons allow for countries to extirpate the security threats which produce the daily fear that dictates many lives, the use of these tools has to follow a legal precedent. What is the value of life? Further, what constitutes the characteristics of a target? Although, even after such a ruling the use of said weapons should be discouraged given the implications that such strikes will bring about.

In the film, Office Space, director Mike Judge brings the viewer inside the mind of Peter Gibbons. Peter is not happy at his job as a computer programmer at Initech Corporation. Unable to endure another moment of the tedious, soul-sucking routine and trivial annoyances at Initech; Peter’s soon to be ex-girlfriend talks him into seeing a hypnotherapist.

This paper will look at how the film represented some of the more common concerns that employees encounter in the workplace today; such as, erosion of civil liberties, job tasks, working conditions, wages, and promotions. In addition; the ethical aspects of personnel policies and procedures such as promotions, discipline, and wages will be discussed.

Mayo Clinic’s work is well known for many specialties, ranked in the top ten for most of them, the biggest thing that this not – for – profit organization is concerned with is, the care and satisfaction of the patients they serve. Patients from all fifty states travel to the Mayo facilities for treatment because they hold their employee and facility standards to high ethical and moral standards.

The article is about how Americans are concerned about illegal immigration, but also ambivalent what to do about it with the 11 million aliens all ready in the United States illegally. Frustrated with the federal governments failure to protect the borders, several states passed laws allowing state police to check he immigration status of potential unlawful aliens. Some civil rights organizations warn the laws will result in ethic profiling. The Obama administration is suing law makers for violating on federal prerogatives. Advocates of tougher enforcement say undocumented workers are taking up U.S., citizens jobs, but many business and farmers say migrant workers are needed to fill unwanted jobs. Now the government is making hearings of arguments

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. It is extremely important to maintain a balance between these two strong factions which often collide on their viewpoints trying to change the laws to suit their morals

In the healthcare profession management and employees have developed policies and procedures to help the general staff understand their role and what they are able to do according to their job description. Each hospital develops their own policies and procedures according to their needs always staying within the law. These policies and procedures help to work through ethical problems or dilemmas that a healthcare professional encounter daily.

Various ethical dilemmas arise in healthcare, and each individual’s personal views affect their behavior and influence their decisions.  Patients with difficult and uncooperative attitudes challenge the nurses ability to maintain appropriate care, however, it is necessary for nurses to maintain a professional and holistic patient/caregiver relationship.  Assessment of the patient’s non-compliance may help the nurse understand the patient’s decisions.  Most importantly, the nurse needs to maintain patience, understanding, and empathy towards their patients, in order to sustain holistic care.  I have made it a point to self-examine myself as well, to maintain awareness of my own personal biases, values, desires and concerns which may influence my interactions with others.  A big struggle for me is caring for patients who bring illness unto themselves, and then refuse the help we offer them.  For example, those who misuse drugs and alcohol, or refuse to take medications that are crucial for the health.  I have to remind myself with these patients, to witness their illness without judgment of blame.  I have to remind myself to set aside all biases so that I am able to effectively care for the patient and their families.  I remind myself to understand that they are suffering human beings, who need my help.  While
