Discussion Question 1: The Ethics of Abortion

 

Discussion Question 1: The Ethics of Abortion

In your lectures this week, beginning of life, fundamental rights, and Roe vs. Wade provided a perspective of ethical issues. Whether a legal right or a law, the ethical issues surrounding the beginning of life are complex, emotional, and potentially costly.

Regardless of your position on abortion, describe the ethical factors involved with your views on ethical concerns at the beginning of life. Please include who you believe the primary patient to be and what you might consider factors in decisions about quality of life for the unborn and risk to the mother.

 

 

 

 

Discussion Question 2: End of Life Issues in Healthcare



 
Discussion Question 2: End of Life Issues in Healthcare

Consider the role of hospice and palliative medicine at the end-of-life. What are your beliefs on care after a terminal diagnosis is made? Now, research your states’ advance directive law (or that of a state of your choice). Describe the law in your words and describe the functions of the form.

Does the form contain information on power of attorney? Does the form contain information on the living will? Should extraordinary care continue, or are comfort measure only the best option?
