Human Values: Importance, Rank and Roles
(5 Pages, 54.75 USD)
|
|
This is a 5 page paper discussing different human values and their importance in terms of individuals’ roles. The importance of different human values differs a great deal depending on the role of an individual and the priority given to values in relation to that role. Richard Wallis has defined a set of “five stem values” of right conduct, peace, truth, love and non-violence. Within each of the five stem values are additional sub-values which are also considered depending upon the role of an individual. Most individuals are family members and citizens and must therefore realize that the responsible values for such roles depend on their right conduct in addition to the value of love within a family situation. Employees and students however may feel that different values are more important in these roles in which case right conduct, truth and non-violence will lead not only to a reliable and dedicated worker but one who is aware of the respect for others within their working and school environments. The role of a friend differs again in regards to the most important values. Like family members, friends value love but they also value right conduct, truth, peace and non-violence in addition to care, consideration and generosity. Clearly, the voluntary role of a friend is one of the most important with one of the most comprehensive aspects of human value. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Rationing Health Care - Issues of Ethics, Philosophy, and Justice
(12 Pages, 131.4 USD)
|
|
This 12 page report discusses the debate regarding who or who should not receive certain forms of medical treatment or health care and the many questions the issue presents. In this climate of ostensibly “compassionate conservatism,” far too many people, in a wide array of life circumstances, are without access to, much less the money to afford optimum health care. This report argues that health care and medical treatment should not be only for those who can financially afford them. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Parental Role in Medical Consent for Procedures Performed on Of-Age Dependents
(6 Pages, 65.7 USD)
|
|
A 6 page discussion of a hospital’s obligation to conduct certain testing on a nineteen year old student who, although of legal age, was covered under her parent’s HMO. The HMO subsequently refused to pay the bill and the parents objected to the fact that the hospital failed to inform them that their daughter was seeking treatment, contending that they would have refused the extensive testing because they were familiar with their daughter’s history of migraines and that her symptoms on the night in question did not constitute anything out of the ordinary. The hospital contends that because the daughter was of legal age her agreement to the testing regime constituted informed consent. The hospital also contends, however, that even if they had of been aware of the parent’s potential objections they would have conducted the tests because their primary responsibility was to the patient. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
