NURBN1001 Legal & Ethical Decision Making in Person-Centred Care
This Course introduces legal and ethical frameworks that impact on professional nursing practice. Students will be able to clearly identify legal and ethical issues, concepts and principles and explore how these relate to the delivery of patient centred care and clinical decision making. Professional standards including: scope of practice, NMBA National Competency Standards for Registered Nurses (2006); NMBA National Competency Standards for Enrolled Nurses (2002); NMBA Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses and Code of Ethics for Nurses, and regulation will be outlined and students will be encouraged to explore health care relationships and practice obligations in a multidisciplinary healthcare team environment.
