How Do Ethical Principles Influence Nursing Care?

Ethical principles are foundational to nursing care and include:
- Autonomy: Respecting patients' rights to make their own decisions.
- Beneficence: Acting in the best interest of the patient.
- Nonmaleficence: Avoiding harm to patients.
- Justice: Ensuring fair and equitable treatment for all patients.
Adhering to these principles ensures that care is not only effective but also morally sound and respectful of patient dignity.
