Assessment instructions


You are required to develop separate case studies for all two (2) case narratives.


In each case study, students are required to respond to the following tasks:

Case narrative 1:



You are working in a rehabilitation unit, and today you are scheduled to assist Alex with a routine procedure. Upon entering their room, you find Alex lying in bed, packing their belongings. They inform you that they refuse to undergo the procedure, stating that they have been in the rehabilitation unit for over a year—far longer than they deem necessary. Alex expresses a deep longing to return to his home, where their eight dogs and four cats await them. Alex feels that the companionship of their pets and the comfort of their home will do more for their well-being than continued rehabilitation. Alex refuses to listen to you explain why the procedure is necessary or why their health may be at risk if they do not stay in the unit.





Case narrative 2:



You have been working at a clinic and the team made a video raising awareness about a public health topic that is very close to everyone’s heart. The video made was very fun and light-hearted content and went viral, receiving over 100, 000 views in 24 hours. The video was taken by yourself and shows your colleagues dancing and promoting health promotion and raising awareness of early health prevention, as well as the clinic that you work at. When you look at the video the next day, you look closer and realise that right in the back of the video for a few seconds is a man sitting on a bench crying into his hands. The video was taken outside, but you think this man might be a patient’s partner whose had received bad news that day. You go to your colleagues about the video and the fact that a few comments have noticed the man. Your colleagues tell you to delete the comments, the man is barely noticeable in the back of the video, it is only a few seconds, and you cannot see his face as it is covered. You are unsure what to do. Your clinic has been fully booked all week with new patients and people are taking your health awareness campaign very seriously because of the video.

Introduction

Case Study 1: Identification of Ethical Dilemma in Rehabilitation Unit
    The given case study explores the case of Alex, who is a patient in rehabilitation centre. He refuses to undergo medical procedures, which are necessary for his well-being despite knowing the importance of these procedures. Ethical dilemma in this case can be noticed in the situation, where Alex’s autonomy and his decision of not undergoing the treatment needs to be respected while on the other side it is the duty of the healthcare provider to follow necessary medical procedures to ensure the well-being of the patient.
Key Legal and Ethical Considerations
    Key legal and ethical considerations in the case study have been identified as:
Autonomy: This is one of the fundamental principles in patient care, which takes into consideration the rights of the patient to make informed decisions about their own health (Varkey, 2021). This principle ensures that consent or informed agreement of the patient is taken before any investigation or medical procedure. In this case, Alex’s informed decision to not undergo the medical procedure must be respected owing to this autonomy.
Beneficence and Non-Maleficence: Beneficence for medical practitioners refers to as a deed performed to ensure benefits of the patient (Cheraghi et al., 2023). Whereas, Non-Maleficence refers to refraining from activities, which may harm the...
