Question Description

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.

In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.

In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:

  1. How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
  2. In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
  3. What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
  4. Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
  5. Finally, present and defend your own view.

Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin. Please refer to the directions in the Student Success Center.

Does stigma, at times, run deep within our cultures of care?

/in /by

Question Description

1) Please help me answer these questions using the Edberg text book and APA formatting, thanks! Reviewing Chapter 5, let’s consider again the link between ethnomedical (and ethnopsychiatric) systems and moral judgments and stigma. How does this knowlege impact you, the RN practicing under the ANA’s Code of Ethics?

  • Does stigma, at times, run deep within our cultures of care?
  • Is it, perhaps, possible that the very people charged with ethical care sometimes pass moral judgment?
  • Thinking of your current practice and/or how you might impact the future of culturally responsive nursing care, what is your responsibility here, according to the Code?
  • Plan for about 100-150 word reflective response. NO citation required. 2) In the module, you are directed to search the article titled: Formulation of a Plan of Care for Culturally Diverse Patients. This gives you added practice at searching the databases specifically.
    1. Prepare an APA citation for this article (1 point) (only do not worry about hanging indents and double-spacing in these small response boxes)
    2. Summarize the article (1 paragraph).
    3. How did the article have meaning for you? What did you really like about this “oldie” but classic article? What was at least on one “ah-ha” moment or reaction to your readings?

Question Description

Need two paragraph answer for each question each question needs a different reference for each question.

1. Provide examples of experimental and nonexperimental research design. Contrast the levels of control applied to each. (two paragraphs and two sources)

2.What is sampling theory? Describe it and provide examples to illustrate your definition. Discuss generalizability as it applies to nursing research. (two paragraphs and two sources)

3. Extraneous variables may have an influence on the dependent variable. In what ways do researchers attempt to control extraneous variables? Support your answer with current literature. (two paragraphs and two sources)

4. Describe the levels of evidence and provide an example of the type of practice change that could result from each.(two paragraphs and two sources)
