Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A The teacher's choice is preserving dignity, which is a value included in the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) Code of Ethics. She cherishes her choice of being treated like everyone else despite her medical condition and publicly affirms the choice by teaching from her wheelchair and insisting that she be treated the same as her colleagues.
B At this point, the teacher is not choosing from alternatives. She could have chosen to quit teaching, but she did not. She has already made her choice.
C The teacher is not demonstrating that she is considering all consequences. She has already made her choice.
D At this point, the teacher is not demonstrating that she is acting with a pattern of consistency. She is not repeating a behaviour.
