Question

The section I chose was about the autonomy of nurses, it is one of the four main principles for the nursing code of ethics. The code exists, as a guideline in the murky situation that can be advocating for patients wants vs. their needs. The code speaks about making sure that the nurse who decides to agree to a patient's wishes must know the full impact of that wish. In some instances, patients may want something but is not aware that the request could have disastrous effects in other areas of their care (Gaines, 2023).
