Registered nurses are entrusted with the critical responsibility of acting and making decisions based on their moral and legal obligations. They must establish professional, culturally safe relationships with patients, comprehend patient rights and the intricacies of consent, and proactively prevent and manage clinical errors to ensure the avoidance of negligence and abuse of power. In order to facilitate this, the fifth edition of Ethics and Law for Australian Nurses serves as a comprehensive guide, providing students with a solid foundation in foundational concepts such as personhood, autonomy, trust, consent, and vulnerability. It delves into the intricate responsibilities of nurses in relation to voluntary assisted dying, abortions, and advanced care directives, while also elucidating the Australian legal system and its profound connection to nursing practice.
This edition, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, sheds light on the significant impact it has had on elderly Australians and injury and negligence claims. It includes updated discussions on guardianship, assisted dying, abortion, and not for resuscitation orders, reflecting the evolving legal landscape and the evolving needs of the nursing profession.
By embracing the principles outlined in Ethics and Law for Australian Nurses, registered nurses can navigate the complex ethical and legal terrain with confidence, ensuring that they provide the highest quality care to their patients while upholding the highest standards of professionalism and integrity.
