Rationing Health Care - Issues of Ethics, Philosophy, and Justice
(12 Pages, 143.4 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.

Parental Role in Medical Consent for Procedures Performed on Of-Age Dependents
(6 Pages, 71.7 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.

Hypothetical Ethical Issue with Reference to Moral Egoism and Moral Absolutism
(3 Pages, 35.85 USD)
|
|
This is a 3 page paper discussing moral egoism and moral absolutism in regards to a hypothetical ethical dilemma. A hypothetical ethical issue is presented which deals with the philosophies of moral egoism and moral absolutism in regards to discussing possible actions in the case of Rose. Rose asks a friend for advice as to whether or not she should have an affair within marriage based on her unusual circumstances of caring for her husband who has been paralyzed for the past six years. Rose states she is a religious person and her religion has taught her that adultery is immoral. From a moral absolutist perspective then, if she had an affair her actions would be considered immoral. Moral egoism however, promotes the happiness of the individual which Rose believes may be the result of the sexual fulfillment she will gain by having an affair. Both aspects are examined in regards to Rose’s situation and a possible solution given by her friend. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Tell Or Keep Quiet?
(5 Pages, 59.75 USD)
|
|
A 5 page paper assessing this scenario: A friend’s daughter is gay; she is staying in her mother’s house and has a friend staying there with her. Her mother does not know that the two women are sleeping together in her home. The paper discusses the philosophies of Kant and Mill as well as ethics of care to arrive at the conclusion that the would-be informer should not share the information with the mother. If the mother truly is unaware of the situation, she will know soon enough. If she knows already but refuses to acknowledge the situation, proclamation of it by a friend disallows her choice to “tune out” reality. At best, the informer’s information will not be new. At worst, the woman could adopt a “shoot the messenger” stance and the friendship could be compromised at a time that the woman may need a friend most. The would-be informer needs to remain silent.
