understanding through an exploration of, and reflection on, one

negative for the client/patient.

clinical placement. You must ensure anonymity and confidentiality of all the

of the ethical, legal and professional obligations of a registered nurse.

applicable. Then,
Ø For each principle, explain your understanding of
the principle AND objectively evaluate the RN’s practice against this
principle.
Ø Focus this discussion by choosing just one (1) or
two (2) of the applicable standards.
Ø Support your discussion with appropriate
literature.
Task Three: The impact forprofessional nursing (300
