Cаse 3: Alex is а 23 yо pаtient with a cervical fracture and spinal cоrd lesiоn at the level of C6-C7. He has had a surgical fusion; is medically stable and is ready to begin rehabilitation but he refuses to allow others to transfer him from bed to begin the process of tolerating sitting and therapy. Testing has revealed normal intelligence and a suspected level of grief and depression following this accident. No active motion has yet been seen below the level of the lesion. The nurses have had problems with his refusal to eat, the PT and OT have been unable to get him out of bed and the social worker has been unable to engage him in conversation about his depression; he says, "leave me alone, I want to die" . The MD refuses to take Alex's desires seriously but also shows little compassion or sensitivity and commands the orderly to bodily remove Alex from the bed and wheel him to physical therapy. The other members of the team , although they do not want to yield forever to Alex's depression believe the MD order is inappropriate and are struggling with what to do next. They feel loyalty to other members of the team, including the MD but resist the command to force Alex to comply.
