Health Ethics (HLTH 5002) Assignment 2: Ethics theory and reasoning; reflection on ethical practice (60%) (3000 words) 1,2,3 This assessment has two parts: A group presentation (20%, 1000-word equivalent) and an individual reflection (80%, 2000 words). Part 1. Group presentation The group presentation will allow you to build on your skills by implementing the concepts applied in Assessment 1 to a group situation. You will work with a group of students to apply the 6-step ethical framework to a specific case. Your presentation will be via Zoom. One member of the group can share the screen and each group member have an opportunity to describe how the framework was used to address the issue. Your presentation should be recorded. One student in the group will be responsible for submission of the recorded presentation to the learnonline site. Part 2. Reflection on ethical practice This reflection will require you to consider your approach to ethical practice in the context of your current career and career aspirations. You should also consider how your approach may differ to that of your colleagues and how you might negotiate these differences. Begin by considering the processes associated with completing Part 1 of this assignment, the group presentation. Do you believe your ethical practices and values differed from those of other group members? Without naming other group members, describe whether there were differences in perceptions between group members and how this was managed. You should also consider how you approach ethical issues in your current role. What are some of the issues that have or might arise in this role? How have you dealt with these issues in the past and have you learned approaches in this course that might change the way you approach ethical practice? Incorporated within the grade for this reflection is a mark for your engagement in the forum discussions over the 13 weeks of the course. You are expected to contribute a post that is relevant to the case study for that week or to the trolley problem discussion. This could be in response to a post already on the forum or a new post, raising a point, opinion or observation. You may choose to provide a statement in the reflection about your engagement in the forum; however, this is not necessary. Topic for the assignment The topic for the group presentation aspect of this assignment is: Should persons who are culpable for their ill health be required to pay more money towards the public health system than others?

Any text exceeding the 2000-word limit will NOT be assessed. There is no minimum word limit, but you need to make sure you have addressed all points. Text should be formatted with 1.5 spacing and size 12 font. For tables/figures you may use single (1.0) spacing and 10-point font (but no smaller than this). Include the page number on each page. Deadline The deadline for submission is 5PM Friday, 11th June 2021. Should you require an extension, please submit your request via the learnonline site as soon as possible. Rubric The marking rubric will indicate how this assessment will be marked. You should download this and keep it handy as you complete your task. Please refer to the rubric and make sure that you have addressed the relevant criteria. Submission Please submit your assignment through learnonline. You do not need a cover sheet. One student from each group should submit the recorded Zoom presentation to the learnonline submission link. Students should individually submit Part 2 of the assessment as a Word document, uploaded to the learnonline submission link. All assignments will be automatically assessed by Turnitin. Assignments demonstrating similarity will be reviewed for academic misconduct, so it is very important that you read your Turnitin reports and make any necessary changes. Turnitin compares your assignment against all assignments in the Turnitin databases AND all electronic resources such as the web or library databases and provides a similarity report. The report highlights text, images or tables which is similar to another source and calculates a percentage. The percentage on its own means very little, because if you have referenced sources, then these references should be identified by Turnitin as being similar to library databases or the original source. For any assignment where you are required to use references, the similarity report percentage will never be zero (0%). When using Turnitin, you MUST OPEN and READ the Turnitin report, not just look at the similarity percentage. Your Turnitin report should ALWAYS show your references/reference list as being similar or the same as another source. BUT unless you have directly quoted (and correctly referenced text as a direct quote), there should no other text identified as similar to another source. If Turnitin has highlighted areas of text within your assignment that is not a direct quote and referenced as such, this is likely to be word for word copying from a source or paraphrasing of the source; and this is plagiarism. It is always worth reading your Turnitin report and if needed, amend your assignment BEFORE you submit the final version. Please note that it can take over 24 hours to generate a Turnitin report or longer in peak periods. Please also note that suspected plagiarism cases will be referred to an Academic Integrity Officer.

Introduction
Ethical practices are the core components b
ehind developing the holistic model of care; they include following of the standard norms of nursing and at the same time, it is closely linked with the challenges that the nursing professionals have to confront at their workplace. In fact, nursing professionals have to maintain their professional accountability by working as the functional units between the patients and the overall healthcare system. They are guided by the principles of care and at the same time, they have to serve the patients by all means which are deemed necessary to develop the holistic support system. On personal grounds—especially after the group presentation—I have come to realize that the culpability of serious illness pertains to be the part of human nature. There should not be a system where individuals who have been culpable to the development of a particular illness be forced to pay more than the normal system does because it would put the entire healthcare system and the universal objectives of care under questionable behavior and it will not justify the universal care model as well.
The Norms of Nursing: Personal Reflection
In the context of examining the topic at personal level, it is necessary to review the basic ethical norms of nursing and how they are applicable towards the context of care given to the individuals. The standpoints in care are initiated by the definition of the illness which is provided by World Health Organization. It is the disturbed state of bio-physical condition of human beings; a time when they are not able to perform their regular activities in a normal way. Any kind of illness, as per my opinion, is nothing but an unwelcomed guest in the human body and it requires care and monitoring with regard to its full prevention. In other words, development of illness in human body is subjected to various factors. These factors may range from—but they are not limited to—genetic issues, ignorance about the vulnerability of the human body to a particular condition or due to the lack of accessibility to the proper healthcare means.
Therefore; when a particular disease is developed, it breaks the morale of individuals. It not only harms their metabolism but also it weakens their emotional integrity. For me, considering their culpability at the time of providing care is something that may delay the process of care or , it can simply break their emotional condition due to consistent reminders given to them about their health and present condition. The question of culpability should also be perceived as a part of ethical practices in nursing; the question of seeing more payments than normal patients would make is not an acceptable part of the ethical behavior in this respect. The development of disease, as mentioned above, can have multiple dimensions and they all must be understood well before the initiation of the cure process. This is not likely the part of the ethics in nursing to seek more payments from those who have been justified over their culpable behavior towards the growth of a particular illness. They might be held responsible for their behavior which is questionable no doubt. However, every individual—and no matter to which caste, creed or color he or she belongs—has the right to access to the proper healthcare norms and at the same time, the process of care should not be exceeding the national policies of payments for various illness taken on behalf of the healthcare systems.
Patients, families, and healthcare professionals must make ethical and legal judgments on a daily basis. Medical treatments, procedures, hospital management, and other issues that develop in the healthcare industry may be the source of these difficult problems. Ethical difficulties in healthcare...
