Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rationale 1: Withdrawal of life-saving treatments can be construed as active euthanasia. The ANA opposes nurses' participation in active euthanasia.
Rationale 2: The nurse should never pass judgment on the patient's belief system.
Rationale 3: The ANA is opposed to the nurse obtaining lethal doses of medication for the purpose of suicide or euthanasia. The nurse may procure and/or administer medication for pain control.
Rationale 4: The ANA opposes nurses' participation either in assisted suicide or active euthanasia because they violate the ethical traditions embodied in the Code of Ethics for Nurses. The nurse should decline the patient's request, but should look beyond the request to what the patient may be saying.
