Attached you will find a brief recording I made regarding my model of ethics, The Siciliano-McLaughlin Model of Ethics. Enjoy and feel free to comment on my post. 

The Five Essential Themes of My Model:

1. The Nurse Serving as a Patient Advocate

2. The Nurse Promoting a Dignified Death for a Patient

3. The Nurse Fostering the Humane Side to Patient Care

4. The Nurse Encouraging Virtuous Integrity

5. The Nurse Actualizing Authentic Leadership.

The ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses (2025)

I would like to use this platform to review the American Nurses Association (ANA) new Code of Ethics for Nurses , "the Code " (2025). The background here is that I attended the 2015 ANA Ethics Symposium, where the ANA dubbed 2015 as the Year of Ethics . Attending that conference was pivotal for me.  Up to that point, in my dissertation, I was struggling with how to approach my literature review and study. That conference gave me great clarity and inspiration.  I worked through that conference, and continued to work once arriving home, on my dissertation topic of ethics in nursing. Now ten years later, I am excited to say that I just received my 2025 updated Code  in the mail.   My plan is to review the updated Code in sections over time. I also intend to draw parallels between the Code and my ethics model, The Siciliano-McLaughlin Model of Ethics .    The ANA states, "The Code of Ethics for Nurses (Code) establishes the ethical standard for the profes...
