Rationale: Nonmaleficence is the avoidance of hurt or harm.
Remember that in healthcare ethics, ethical practice
involves not only the will to do good but also the equal
commitment to do no harm. Healthcare professionals try to
balance the risks and
benefits of a plan of care while striving to do the least
possible harm. Justice refers to fairness and equity and
ensuring fair allocation of resources, such as nursing care
for all clients. Fidelity is the keeping of promises made to
clients, families, and other
healthcare professionals. Autonomy refers to a person’s
independence and represents an agreement to respect
another’s right to determine his or her course of action.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the subject - the ethical
principle being utilized. Recall the definition of each item in
the options.
Note the relationship of the strategic words <least possible
harm< in the question and the definition of
nonmaleficence.
