Topic: Personal Application

Chapters 10, 11, and 12 of the Pozgar text each address a different area of practice within the healthcare environment. Identify the chapter that most closely applies to your personal area of practice (current or aspirational), read that chapter, and be prepared to explore the legal and ethical issues in that practice area.

• Chapter 10: Medical staff organization and physician liability
• Chapter 11: Nursing and the law
• Chapter 12: Hospital departments and allied professionals

Prompt: Based on the chapter you selected, your personal experience, and a biblical worldview, write a Discussion Board Forum thread identifying and analyzing the legal and ethical issues specific to your area of practice.

Your analysis must be supported by at least 4 scholarly sources, including the textbook chapter(s) and the Bible, cited in current APA format (note that this is a different requirement than the previous Discussion Board Forums). Upload a Word document copy of the post into SafeAssign for plagiarism review; then, copy and paste the content into the Discussion Board Forum (do not post with attachments). Title your thread with the area of practice that you analyzed.
