What are the Consequences of Lacking Integrity and Confidentiality?
Lack of integrity can lead to breaches of trust, compromised patient care, and damage to the nurse's professional reputation. It can also result in legal actions and disciplinary measures. Similarly, failing to maintain confidentiality can lead to legal consequences, loss of patient trust, and harm to the patient. Both integrity and confidentiality are fundamental to the ethical practice of nursing and are essential for the health and safety of patients.
