Questions

When identifying the perfоrmаnce skills оf fоlding lаundry, which skills аre most critical?

Mаrthа is а 38-year оld female, whо is married and has 2 minоr children.  While driving alone, she’s in a serious car accident.  Although initially conscious after the accident, she soon becomes unconscious due to blood loss and internal injuries.  After being transported to the hospital and before her spouse arrives, physicians perform emergency surgery to stop the internal bleeding but are unable to obtain consent from Martha since she’s unconscious.  After the surgery, Martha remains unconscious, and she’s placed on a ventilator and is fed and hydrated artificially.  After a few weeks, Martha’s physicians believe she is in a persistent vegetative state because of continued lack of meaningful brain function.  They also believe that if Martha is removed from the ventilator, she’ll continue breathing on her own indefinitely but will continue to require artificial hydration and feeding.  The physicians don’t believe she’ll ever regain consciousness. Martha’s spouse presents the hospital with a properly completed Power of Attorney for Healthcare Decisions and asks that ventilator be removed and that feeding and hydration be discontinued.  These actions are both ethically and legally defensible for the physicians (e.g. they cannot be liable for negligence, wrongful death, homicide, or any other tort or crime based solely on the removal of life sustaining care).  Martha has no other advance directive.  Martha’s parents object to this decision and claim that Martha had told them only a few years ago that she would prefer to remain on life support, including receiving care such as artificial hydration and nutrition, even if there is currently no hope for regaining consciousness on the off chance that eventually she could be cured in this type of circumstance. Should the physicians remove the life-sustaining treatment as directed by Martha’s spouse, or continue the treatment as directed by Martha’s parents, and WHY?  If Martha’s spouse wants to bring a lawsuit against the hospital and physicians for negligence based on a lack of informed consent for the initial surgery, will that lawsuit be successful and why or why not (you DO NOT need to discuss the elements of negligence for this question)? (3-4 sentences)
