Go to Discussion

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for basic knowledge and understanding of different faith expressions. No matter what someone’s worldview is, death and dying is a difficult experience whether emotions are expressed or not. For the purpose of this assignment, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.

Read the “Case Study: End-of-Life Decisions” document or one provided by your instructor. Based on the reading of the case, the Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the required topic Resources, you will complete an ethical analysis of situation of the individual(s) and their decisions from the perspective of the Christian worldview.

Based on your reading of “Case Study: End-of-Life Decisions” document (or one provided by your instructor) and topic Resources, complete the “Death and Dying: Case Analysis” document, in which you will analyze the case study in relation to the following:

• Christian view of the fallen world and the hope of resurrection
• Christian worldview of the value of life
• Christian worldview of suffering
• Empathy for the individual(s) as they are supported and cared, actions, and their consequences
• Respect for the perspectives of individual(s) different from personal and professional values, conscious and unconscious biases related to human rights in health care practice, actions, and their consequences
• Personal decision-making based on personal worldview

Support your response using only the following Topic 4 Resources:

• Chapter 4 from the textbook Practicing Dignity: An Introduction to Christian Values and Decision-Making in Health Care
• “Physician-Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia: Theological and Ethical Responses”
