Stick to the 4 principles
Essay 2
• Discuss an ethical issue you have come across in practice
– For this essay you are required to select an ethical dilemma you have come across in practice and discuss this in relation to the main ethical principles which you will learn about in class. You should take each of the ethical principles in turn and apply these to the ethical dilemma you are discussing.
It is important that you don’t choose an ethical dilemma which is too complicated as it is unlikely that you could cover this adequately within a 600 word essay.
Again, your essay must be correctly referenced using the University recognised referencing system and you must give a list of your references at the end of your essay. It would be important to consider relevant documentation from the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
