Ethical dilemmas in long-term care settings; interviews with nurses in Sweden and England.

G Elander1, K Drechsler, K W Persson.   

Abstract

With the aim of investigating ethical dilemmas arising in long-term care settings, nurses were interviewed at hospitals in southern Sweden and southern England. The interviews confirmed the occurrence of conflicts in caring for the elderly, and conflicts in the staff-patient-relative constellation. The content of the interviews was analysed with regard to prevailing principles of patient autonomy and the ranking order of preferences among those involved.
