Wаyne wаs recently diаgnоsed with type 2 diabetes. Since receiving that diagnоsis, he has spоken with his primary care doctor about how he can best manage his high blood sugar to avoid the negative health consequences that come with poorly controlled diabetes. His physician has brought in many health care professionals on the care team to educate Wayne and discuss the changes he can make to better control his blood sugar. Rory is a dietician and a member of the health care team. He educates Wayne on the importance of diet and the impacts it can have on blood sugar levels for patients with diabetes. A couple weeks later, Wayne was hospitalized for an unrelated health condition. The dietician at the hospital, Emily, looked through Wayne’s chart and saw his blood sugar levels were very good. Even though Wayne is diabetic, Emily decided he could have a regular diet. Usually, diabetic patients receive a different menu that is lower in carbohydrates and sugar to prevent episodes of high blood sugar. Rory spoke with Wayne over the phone to check on him while he was hospitalized, and he told Rory he was given access to regular desserts and sugary juices with each meal. Upon hearing this from the patient, Rory was concerned and reached out to Emily, the dietician at the hospital. This issue was complicated because Rory isn’t in a position to make the dietary decisions while Wayne is hospitalized but Rory is involved in helping him control his blood sugar levels. It wasn’t clear how much influence on the decision Rory should have and how much influence Emily should have. Which of the following best describes the situation? Partner responsibility conflict Absolute duties Prima facie duties Locus of authority conflict

Anne had completed advanced directives stating she did not want to be hooked up to machines, but at the time of her hospitalization for pneumonia, Dr. Jewell believed that she would have a full recovery. He did not believe she was near death. After Anne and Dr. Jewell discussed her options, Ann chose to be placed on a ventilator, just to get her through an acute (short-term) episode of pneumonia Unfortunately, after 3 days on the ventilator, Anne caught another infection and went into organ failure. A few days after that, she had a stroke. The ventilator was no longer a “bridge” to get her through the pneumonia. She was going to die. At this point, the ventilator had become: life sustaining life prolonging ordinary means assisted suicide
