Ethical Framework
In the wake of a global pandemic, healthcare systems worldwide face unprecedented challenges in allocating scarce resources, such as vaccines, ventilators, personal protective equipment (PPE), and intensive care unit (ICU) beds. An ethical framework is needed to guide decision-making and prioritize resource allocation based on principles of fairness, equity, and maximizing benefit for the greatest number of patients.
New City Hospital is experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases, overwhelming its healthcare resources. The hospital’s ICU is at full capacity, and there is a shortage of ventilators and PPE. All employees and immunocompromised patients need to be vaccinated, but there is currently shortage of COVID19 vaccines. The hospital’s ethics committee is tasked with developing an ethical framework for resource allocation to guide healthcare providers in making difficult triage and supplies distribution decisions. You are one of the member of ethical committee who is tasked to developing the ethical framework.
Instructions:
Select 3 Ethical Framework/Theories (Utilitarianism, Rights-based, Duty-based, Justice-based, Virtue-based)
Explain each framework
Give one example of how each of the ethical frameworks would work in deciding a health care related situation above (ex. distributing vaccines, implementing new medication, PPE strategies, triage COVID19 patients, etc.)
What should the ethical committee should do in the process of ethical framework implementation to ensure the internal and external stakeholder can navigate resource constraints ethically.

Title: Contrasting Nurse Practice Rules Across States in the United States
Find a rule from any state in the United States that limits what a nurse can do and find another rule from a different state that allows something different. For example:
LPNs in Michigan – Can give IV meds after they pass the “medication class” and receive a certificate. They may not administer blood.
LPNs in Nebraska – When under direction of RN, LPNs may infuse IV fluids and administer approved meds (by RN or MD) into a continuous central flow line for adult patients. LPNs may administer heparin, but no other IV meds in dialysis setting.
