Assignment: Ethical Principles: Film Review Paper The practice of professional nursing challenges nurses to navigate ethical dilemmas in practice as they advocate for effective, ethical health care. Ethical principles provide guidance for the nurse charged with making ethical decisions while caring for their patients. As stewards of ethical practice, nurses are responsible to uphold the professional standards outlined in the Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretative Statements ‘The Code’ (American Nurses Association, 2015). The ability of the nurse to identify and analyze ethical dilemmas is a critical professional competency. The opportunity to demonstrate an understanding of the four classic ethical principles: autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice assists the nurse to meet ethical obligations of care.
