One of the main principles of the SPJ Code of Ethics that I find is most important to me is minimize harm. Minimizing harm according to the SPJ Code of Ethics means, "Ethical journalism treats sources, subjects, colleagues and members of the public as human beings deserving of respect."* This involves that while your job is to inform the community, you should not cause harm or discomfort to your viewer ship or to those involved in the story. Your job as a journalist is to to provide a service to the public, not cause harm to them. By causing no harm you take in consideration on what your public may take offense to and so you make sure your work does the job, but at the same time it is a comfortable read for your viewer ship.

I thought your discussion post this week was great. After looking at exercise 4-4 I completely agree with you that using PRN nurses and working with float nurses is such a smart idea. Decreasing discharge teaching time like the manager wants to do on the unit is unsafe and unethical to patients. The nurses on the unit are doing their part by providing excellent patient care, but reducing education can lead to dangerous outcomes for patients in the long run. Provision 3 of the ANA Code of Ethics (ANA, 2015) states that nurses should promote, advocate, and protect the rights, health, and safety of every patient. By implementing your proposed thoughts I really do believe wait times and patient satisfaction could certainly improve. There are always
Canada is a multicultural country. Healthcare providers, therefore, face certain challenges associated with this. The CMA Code of Ethics recommends that âphysicians provide patients with whatever information that will, from the patient's perspective, have a bearing on medical care decision-making and communicate that information in a way that is comprehensible to the patient.â [1]. This statement has a very important message, which implies that the truth telling is not a mandatory burden that every patient must endure but rather a stage-like process delivered by a healthcare provider and guided by the patient.
The main points of provision five of the ANA code of ethics are as follows: section 5.1, which is moral self-respect, suggests that nurses must care for themselves as much as they care for their patients. Nurses must do their best to maintain professional respect to themselves in regards of their competence and moral character. Section 5.2, which is professional growth and maintenance of competence, suggests that nurses must continue to self and peer evaluate themselves throughout their careers. Nurses must continue to learn current, up to date nursing practices through self, peer, and higher education. Section 5.3, which is wholeness of character, suggests that nurses must develop and take into consideration their own

There are six core values outlined in the National Association of Social Work (NASW) Code of Ethics. These values include service, social justice, dignity and worth of a person, the importance of human relationships, integrity, and competence.

The first core value I want to address is social justice.
The NASW Ethical Principle of service is most relevant to the social problem of hunger because this principle covers a social workers primary goal to help people that are in need and to address the social problems (NASW Code of Ethics). Due to the tremendous amount of people who current live in poverty, not being able to afford a suitable amount food increased the amount of hunger around society. This suggests that the issue of huger should be addressed by social workers who have the amount of knowledge and skills to advocate for these clients. For a social worker to take the time of day to address these social issues and problems. Make a difference by taking it to a higher power. A social worker should also spend time by helping the population with no expectations of zero to little pay (NASW Code of Ethics).
