Prompt #1 About one baby out of every 600 born in the U.S. has Down’s syndrome. Many of these children are born with fatal physical conditions that can cause quite a bit of pain and suffering. For instance, a baby with Down’s syndrome could be born with part of their vital organs missing, intestines might be blocked, and their heart might not pump properly. Surgery is often required for these infants to survive beyond the first few days of life.
Parents must decide whether to allow surgery to save the child, who may end up requiring costly long-term care and services for life or withholding permission thus causing the child to die.
*Is it immoral for the parents to withhold surgery?
*Likewise, is it immoral for the parents to allow the surgery?
*Is the assumption that parents will act in the best interest of their child justified?
*Morally speaking, would the physician deciding not to operate be tantamount to murder?
*Ethicist James Rachels (1975) uses the Baby Does case to illustrate how passive euthanasia can sometimes cause more suffering than active euthanasia. If it is morally permissible for parents to allow their infants to die, should active euthanasia be used instead?
*Considering the moral issues related to quality and sanctity of life, the principle of do no harm, and palliative care, are there ever any cases when euthanasia of an infant is morally justified? (USLOs 8.1, 8.3)

Prompt #2 Ethicist Margaret Battin (1987) suggests that physicians should uphold a patient’s autonomy by informing them about humane methods for ending one’s life. Thus, the principle of autonomy creates a moral obligation for physicians to provide patients (who request it) with information on how to die.
Furthermore, some individuals create suicide kits that are available for purchase through online retailers like Ebay. One in particular, is a 3D-printed pod suicide machine called “Sarco” that fills with gas to end a person’s life.
*Should there be limits on freedom of speech when it comes to publicizing methods for killing oneself or others?
*Should physicians be the ones to inform patients about “humane” methods for ending their lives?
*Some people might argue that suicide attempts are just a cry for help. How can a physician determine if a request for euthanasia is genuine and not just a cry for help? (USLOs 8.1, 8.2, 8.3)\

The youth has been started on an antidepressant and she states she does not want to go back home. The home environment is safe for the child. What do you say to the youth? Would you have a different answer if the youth was 17 years 11 months old and not 16? (this is a common problem when working with teenagers).

What is your idea about the following paragraph?
The color of a uniform can influence a patient's perception of the care they are receiving. This is something we can all relate to in clinical because first impressions significantly contribute to the confidence patients have in their care. Looking at our uniforms in nursing school now, our maroon pants and white tops bring a sense of professionalism into our clinical sites that influences the healthcare team's perception of us as well. This is beneficial to nursing students because it helps the team see us not only as students, but as collaborative assets to the patient's care as well.

What is your idea about the following paragraph?
How the patient perceives the nurse has been shown to have an impact on the patients care. Due to this, the image of the nurse is important. Historically it has shown nurses in a different light. Our image may impact how professional we appear and the confidence the patient has in our abilities. I also feel that the field of nursing is constantly evolving and changing so it is important to not let the way the media has portrayed us to define our abilities and care for the patients.
