Step 1
Choose either Option A or Option B and post a 150+ word discussion by Wednesday, 11:59 pm MT,
Be specific and give examples, using at least two outside references, to buttress your argument. Cite all sources in APA format.
Option A:
“Euthanasia is a last resort for those who have been abandoned by the medical community to endless pain or debilitating mindlessness. If the medical community truly cared, there would be much better pain protocols so that no one would have to resort to either mind numbing chemicals or ending their life. ‘Physician assisted suicide’ is a cowardly excuse for an uncaring profession.”
Discussion:
Using your reading in this course so far and other research, discuss the ethical concepts referred to in this statement.

Option B:
“What can society do to save itself from those who seek to do it harm? Incarceration is too often described as either punishment or path to rehabilitation. What it needs to be is a form of protection from those who reject the requirements of social interaction in favor of their own aggrandizement. The true answer lies in creating a ‘Coventry’ where asocial individuals can be sent to live away from those they seek to harm.”
Discussion:
Using your reading in this course so far and other research, discuss the ethical ramifications of this statement.
Note to the Writer: Don’t forget to leave two discussion questions for peer engagement. Cite MacKinnon and two researched sources directly, need direct citations in quotation marks, and in-text citation support from your sources. An in-text citation should directly cite something relevant from a source using a specific. For example, MacKinnon and Fiala (2018) explain the uterine or vacuum abortion method for abortion as such: “In this procedure, the cervix (the opening of the uterus) is dilated, and the contents are removed by suction tube” (p. 235). Push for research directly related to the nursing field. Please writer follow the instructions provided. Please use nursing sources. Again please provide in text citations. The book is MacKinnon and Fiala 2017. Thank you!
