1. Reflect on any ethical dilemmas uncovered during the scenario and describe how you might
respond differently based on the situation. Provide evidence-based resources to support your
response.
a. One of the dilemmas I came across was that Mr. Gomez kept asking that his oxygen
be turned up, but the nurse/doctor kept it down due to high oxygen settings hurting
COPD patients in the long run (because it can cause respiratory acidosis and even
death). This is an example of beneficence even though it goes against what Mr
Gomez wants (autonomy). (clinicaltrials.gov)
2. Describe an “Aha” moment you experienced during this learning experience and how it will
expand your nursing care.
a. One “aha” moment I experienced was realizing why it is appropriate to have a low
oxygen setting for COPD patients due to them being chronic CO2 retainers.
3. What are some aspects of client care that you did not feel prepared to make clinical decisions
for in the scenario?
a. I felt prepared to make all of the decisions in this scenario.
