ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses 2025 Provision 1: The nurse practices with compassion and respect for the inherent dignity, worth, and unique attributes of every person. 1.1 Respect for Human Dignity This part of Provision 1 views human dignity as a fundamental principle which underlies all nursing practice.

I also reviewed some ethical situations that the participants in my study discussed with me. As we spoke about each situation, we examined it through the lens of the themes. A student asked me more about the central framework of authenticity. Today, I want to think about authenticity in response to our discussion about the central framework. The literature says that an authentic existence consists of three characteristics. The person needs to be fully aware of the present moment. The person lives in the moment by choosing how to live one’s life. The person needs to take responsibility for the choice (Corey, 1982). These concepts lead back to, and support, Dewey’s (1909/2008) work regarding intellectual development leading to a sense of good judgment....
