Questions about an Ethical Analysis    1. 0     Hello everyone,
I'm a first year nursing student (BScN) and need help with an
ethical analysis for and ethical dilemma/violation.     I'm just
looking for guidance on the legal side (Canadian law) of the
situation.      Mr. X has advanced pancreatic cancer. He speaks
very little English and refused an interpreter as he trusts his
sons completely. He had surgery but has no chance of recovery.
Mr. X is dying.      The team had a meeting with Mr. X and his
sons to explain the situation. The team was very clear in their
statements that:     - the surgery showed that the cancer was
too advanced for other treatments.     - he is dying     - the
health team would try to make his as comfortable as possible
with palliative treatments for pain and     supportive care.
The sons listened carefully, asked lots of questions, and then
turned to talk to their father. They told him that:     - the
surgery removed the tumor     - he would require lots more
treatment
