Nursing Ethics and Law explores the ethical principles and legal responsibilities that guide nursing practice in various healthcare settings. The course examines key concepts such as patient autonomy, confidentiality, informed consent, and professional accountability, emphasizing the application of ethical decision-making frameworks and current legal statutes. Students will analyze real-world case studies to understand how ethical dilemmas and legal issues impact patient care, professional conduct, and interprofessional collaboration. By understanding the interplay between ethics and law, students will be better prepared to advocate for patients' rights, uphold standards of professional practice, and navigate complex situations with integrity.
