fpx 4050 Ethical Implications, Nurse Code of Conduct, Coordination and Continuum of Care

The ethical implications and the code of conduct of nurses provide the continuum of care in the community and medical care. The working ethics of the hospital provide interprofessional communication and timely, safe, quality and efficient health care. The code of conduct addresses the basic care coordination practices that ensure the practice of the regulatory conduct at the health care organization (Hannigan et al., 2018). 

The impact of the Nurses code of conduct of care coordination., continuous improvement, patient centred safe and efficient care provisions provide patient satisfactory care. The addressing of the malpractice and medication negligence will increase the number of reported medication errors. The costs for the medication and the organizational expense son the readmission will decrease after the efficient care practices along with better post-discharge care and monitoring (Gerada, 2019)

The nurse’s code of ethics is based on the care coordination ‘triple aim’ enables them to provide quality, access and reliable care to the patients with continuous efforts to improve coordinated care and efficient health care practices. Nurses have the role of care coordinators. It implicates the nurses to provide coordinated care by communicating with the other health care professionals (Stumm et al., 2019). The American Association for College of Nursing (AACN) also enables Nurses to practice holistic care measures. The continuum of health and illness must be regulated by enhancing the communication with the patient and with other health care providers. The caring practices require multiple resources in the form of financial, medication and manpower to provide better-coordinated care. 

The main issues identified in the ethical practice is the dilemma of malpractice by the nurses and personal autonomy for the professional to work together. It enables the nurses to depend on their decision-making abilities to competently handle the situation. The autonomy of the patient and the confidentiality issue of the patient’s electronic health records give jeopardy of the post-discharge monitoring. However, patients’ consent and electronic telehealth technology can policies the right benefit. The policies of the health care and community resources require costs analysis and financial support. However, there is also a need for research in identifying the low costs and highly energy-efficient sources of the energy (Stumm et al., 2019).

Conclusion

The Nursing code of conduct and organizational working ethics implicate the nurses to provide safe and efficient care provisions under the umbrella of a coordinated care plan. The ethical dilemmas pose certain implications in the proper care coordination measures. It also affects the autonomy, dignity and freedom of work of fellow professionals. The policies of smoking cessation programs and high taxes have improved the non-smoking rates in the younger generation because of the low affordability of the products.
