Answer to Question 1
A
Poor communication and the hierarchical systems that exist in health care, such as reporting structures within the hospital or the historically unequal relationship between physicians and nurses, may complicate dilemmas. The primary, underlying reason that ethical dilemmas occur is that there are no clear cut, universally accepted solutions to a problem when participating individuals do not share the same values. Without clarification of values, the nurse may not be able to distinguish fact from opinion or value, and this can lead to judgmental attitudes.
