As hard as death is, each of us handles death differently. I think a lot of patients look to the nurse to help them with grief.  What do you say, what do you do?

After reading chapter 12 page 449 and watching the videos, discuss how you would handle your feelings with the death of a newborn?  Do you think you could be supportive to the parents? Do you think that the current resources that are being currently used are helpful to the parents?   Talk about the videos and how they made you feel.

In this assignment, you will select a current medical ethics issue to research and write about for your research paper.

Select a topic related to one of the following current medical ethics issues:

• End of Life

Complete and submit this template stating your specific issue (for instance, if you choose to write about End of Life, the particular case might be physician-assisted suicide) and explain why you have chosen this issue to research. Make sure there are competing positions on this issue that reflect differing ethical principles or interpretations.

I’m working on a public health discussion question and need support to help me learn.

• This week’s topic is all about clinical epidemiology. One of the most obvious current screening tests is for COVID-19. Using a peer-reviewed paper to support your conclusions, discuss whether (or not) COVID-19 testing fits some or all of the WHO guidelines for a screening test. You may discuss the PCR-based tes, pooled testing, rapid testing, home testing, or any other type of applicable testing.
• One of the subtopics this week is outcomes research and analysis in reference to epidemiologic studies. Where in your professional or personal lives do you see application of outcomes study?

You will be assigned to read and provide useful feedback to two other students’ research project second drafts. The peer review process is designed to provide constructive feedback, and should be given and taken with honesty, charity, and grace. Ideally, when preparing your peer reviews, you will recognize things you could improve in the next update of your own draft! Giving useful feedback to others will also be a part of your course grade, so be thoughtful and generous. See the assignment rubric on Canvas for grading criteria.
