The Ethical Dilemma Of The Case Of Banned Performance -enhancing Drug At The Club

Moreover, an emphasis is imposed on the rights of a single patient to commit an act or decision even though it is in contrast with the views of the others. In regards to the ethical dilemma, a nurse could not justify the morality of the two possible choices based on their results and consequences. The Deontological approach would encourage the health care staff as well as the patient to ask themselves the most righteous choice for their situation. With this in mind, a combination of ethical theories can also be employed to give light to the dilemma. In view of this, another ethical approach could be applied to solve the issue, and this is the Right-based approach. This theory also aim to promote the rights of every person, and that, they are indispensable just to make ends meet. However, not all ethical theories can be incorporated in every dilemma in a health care setting because their foundations would contradict one another. In order to provide an effective and efficient solution, nurses should be knowledgeable of the principles enveloping each of the ethical theories and should be wise to apply them in appropriate issues and

In this paper I will discuss the ethical dilemma faced in the Jahi McMath case, followed by an ethical principle applied to the dilemma, different perspectives related to the dilemma, and how the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses provides guidance in decision making.

Today’s society places high-performance athletes on a pedestal and our youth look to become the next superstar. The question plaguing young athletes is “how can I get there?”. Physical development must be considered for any athlete and this consequently introduces the topic of performance enhancing drugs. These substances can cause physical development to occur faster than the natural rate, making the athlete a step above “the rest”. Ethical, moral, and spiritual dilemmas occur when a young athlete contemplates using one or more of these performance enhancers. However, the pressure to excel athletically creates the opportunity to strengthen the relationship with Christ by not engaging in

The topics that will be discussed in this paper will be the ethical decisions that have to be made by Dr. F and the RN in regards to disclosing information to Dr. J. Also, according to the NANDA nursing diagnosis for ethical consideration, Dr. F and the RN also have to consider if Mrs. Z has some knowledge deficits in regards to her prognosis and if due to her culture, she feels powerlessness towards her diagnosis. Ethical theories are important to justifying and relating situations in nursing. In this paper, there will be discussions relating ethical theories to nursing, as well as, ethical decision making models that will relate to the delivery of healthcare.

A scandal broke in 2013 over the Cronulla Sharks concerning the administration of performance enhancing drugs to players during 2011-2012. Some of the ethical and corporate government issues associated with the clubs actions will be explored in the following case study.

These days it seems as society is constantly being faced with Ethical Dilemmas. Whether it is normal everyday citizens, actors, business executives, and even athletes. The way that every person deal with ethical dilemmas is by relying on their worldview. The world of professional sports is a very tough and competitive place. It is full of top level athletes that are masters in their respective sports and the struggle that they all face is to be better than everyone else. With all these athletes working hard and looking for new ways to better themselves, some take the easy way over the right way. In this paper, the ethical dilemma of performance enhancing drugs being used in sports will be addressed

The largest Performance Enhancing Drug scandal, in baseball, all started over a debt owed to Porter Fischer in 2013. Fischer worked for Tony Bosch who owned a clinic called Biogenesis of America, which specialized in weight loss and hormone replacement therapy. When Bosch did not pay back his debt to Fischer, Fischer became angry and wanted revenge. This is when Porter stole documents from Tony to get his revenge by letting the world know who “Dr. Tony Bosch,” is what he called himself even though he wasn’t a real doctor, really was doing at this so called “clinic”. In the documents that had all the client names there were twenty Major League ballplayers that MLB ended up linking to the clinic, but only one stood out to Fischer: Alex Rodriguez. This was an eye opener for Major League Baseball and they knew something needed to be done about the use of PEDs in the sport of baseball.

Ethical dilemmas often face a challenge on deciding what the right action to take is, and therefore are quite complex. Nevertheless, there are situations in which majority of individuals feel there is a clear acceptable choice. Specifically, the use of performance enhancing drugs through the public eye, are often not sanctioned as acceptable. With “the number of professional athletes using steroids […] estimated to be fewer than 1%” (Petersen & Kristensen, 2009). Throughout this paper the scenario regarding performance enhancing drugs will be analyzed specifically focusing on the ethical dilemma, the Christian core beliefs, how they relate to this situation, the resolution, evaluation, and comparison to other options.

Do you want to want to become the peak athlete that you know your body is capable of? Well, this paper will not do that for you, but it will tell you how, and it will tell you why it should be legal to do so. Doping in sports is one of the most extensive debates within the realm of athletics. Whether it be injecting anabolic steroids, consuming them, or blood doping, athletes will do drugs. Doping has no effect on the viewership of the sport. Athletes can always find ways to cheat the system, and trying to prevent the use seems impossible. The use of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) should be legalized, as long as it is allowed under medical supervision.

Medical ethics and legal issues have been a key topic in medical field for many years now. It is important for medical professionals to understand the importance of the way we care for patients, it is therefore important to be knowledgeable and aware of the medical ethics and legal issues that govern good patient care. Health care professionals must make decisions based on ethical and legal issues to performance their regular duties. However, Medical ethics is not only about avoiding harm to patients. It is rather a norms, values and principles (Ethical theories 2015). Therefore norms, values and principles are intended to govern medical ethical conduct. Ethics is defined as “a standard of behaviour and a concept of right and wrong beyond what the legal consideration is in any given situation”. In another words medical ethics is a discipline that used to handle moral problems coming out the care of patients. Law is another important discipline that often comes together with medical ethics. Law defined as a “rule of conduct or action prescribed or formally recognized as binding or enforced by a controlling authority”. Government imply law to keep the society running smoothly and to control behaviour that could threaten public safety. Medical professionals have to often prioritise these terms before making any clinical decision. The following findings will constructively emphasise on medical ethics, its

This paper examines the use of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) in professional sports. In all professional sports like baseball, basketball, football, and organized fighting, PEDs have been used to enhance athletes, however there is a question of ethics in the use of PEDs. Some examples of PEDs are anabolic steroids, doping, and stimulants. All of these effect an athlete’s performance in a different way, although their health is also at risk. The life span of athletes is depleting without the use of PEDs, therefore with PEDs being used it is only worse. Also these professional athletes are role models to thousands of young athletes. These young athletes are looking

On January 17, 2013, Lance Armstrong admitted to doping during his professional cycle careers. He joins other great names; such as Tyson Gay, Mark McGwire, Barry Bonds, and Alex Rodriguez; all great athletes who have had their reputations tarnished by using performance enhancing drugs (sometimes shortened to PEDs). In his interview with Opera Winfrey, Armstrong stated that “I didn 't view [doping] [as cheating]. I viewed it as a level playing field” (Lance). With this statement, Armstrong is declaring that many professional cyclists and other professional athletes engage in illegal doping in order to improve their performances. These drugs can be useful for their ability to decrease recovery time, allowing athletes to train more intensely. Currently, most forms of performance enhancing drugs are banned from use in professional sports (caffeine is a common legal substance). However, it is well known that performance enhancing drugs are used by athletes in a wide variety of sports at a variety of levels. Since, according to Armstrong, most athletes are using these drugs, a new approach needs to be implemented to deal with performance enhancing drugs. One possible solution is to just allow the use of performance enhancing drugs.

Athletes work hard for years to achieve their goals and dreams. Some athletes use performance-enhancing drugs to skip the hard work that natural athlete did. It works the same way for academics’ life, some researchers steal ideas or even complete work from other scholars and claim it as theirs. This is called cheating because they are not putting the effort that it takes to achieve the goal. The competition between athletes or even academics become dishonest because they did not put equal effort. In my opinion, if the drugs get legalized there should be two competition for each sport, one for people who do not use drugs and one for who uses the drugs.

There are a variety of different ethical systems that have developed of the course of millennia. However, even though the subject has been covered so thoroughly, it is still heavily debated. The varieties of ethical systems that are in existence look at various ethical problems from different perspectives and can be applied differently in different circumstances. Because of the subjective aspects to applying ethics, they can be as much an art as they are a science. Ethics are something that must be practiced and really cannot be perfected. In this way, studying ethics is a continual process that does not really stop. This paper will argue that ethics are the most important subject that an individual can pursue.

Within healthcare, practitioners often have to make difficult decisions regarding the care of their patients. This could be to do with giving or withdrawing treatment, or as simple as sharing risk information (Glover, 1997). Ultimately, the practitioner must be able to rationalise any decision they have made (Morrison, 2009). With this in mind, the following assignment will draw upon an ethical dilemma and explore how theoretical perspectives can be utilised within the decision making process. Therefore it will also be pertinent to draw upon the law, and how this influences actions within health care. To facilitate this discussion, I will identify a scenario from practice that
