Requirements: 

This Assessment 1 requires you to accomplish a 600-word assignment, that answers three questions for 200 words each. All three questions are based on the case of a patient named “Sarah”.

Question 1

Identify and briefly describe the ethical principles/theory in this case.

Question 2

Identify and briefly describe the legal issues that apply to this case.

Question 3

Considering the legal and ethical implications in the scenario, what would you do and explain why?

Our Writer’s Comment 

This assessment tests students’ ability to apply ethical and legal reasoning under time-critical clinical conditions, not simply recall definitions of ethics principles or laws. Strong submissions show that the student understands how ethical theory, legal obligations, and professional nursing responsibilities interact in real emergency scenarios.

A common weakness in Question 1 is listing ethical principles without application. Higher-scoring answers briefly define key principles such as autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice, but more importantly explain how these principles conflict in Sarah’s case and why that conflict creates an ethical dilemma.

For Question 2, weaker responses treat legal issues vaguely or incorrectly assume a DNR tattoo is legally binding. Stronger answers demonstrate clarity around consent, advance care directives, duty of care, and scope of practice, emphasising the absence of legally valid documentation.

In Question 3, higher-quality submissions show sound professional judgement, clearly justifying the decision taken by paramedics using both ethical reasoning and legal defensibility, rather than personal opinion.

General Tips to Improve Your Score

• Be concise and precise
  Each question is limited to 200 words, so clarity matters more than breadth.

• Apply principles to the scenario
  Avoid generic definitions without linking them directly to Sarah’s situation.

• Distinguish ethics from law clearly
  Ethical wishes do not always equate to legal authority in emergency care.

• Prioritise patient safety and professional duty
  Your recommended action must be legally defensible and clinically appropriate.

• Write from a nursing perspective
  Frame responses in terms of professional responsibility, not personal belief.
