Analyze ethical and legal implications of cases involving bioethics. Two examples of highly publicized cases are listed below. The national discussion concerning decision making for incompetent patients began with the 1976 case of Karen Ann Quinlan. Because she had been left in a persistent vegetative state after two periods of anoxia, her parents sought court authorization to remove her from a ventilator. The New Jersey Supreme Court, in a landmark, unanimous decision, authorized the removal based on Quinlans constitutional right of privacy, which the court concluded would be lost unless her parents were given authority to exercise it on her behalf. In the 15 years since Quinlan, courts in almost 20 states have reviewed disputes regarding treatment for incompetent patients. Courts in all these states have recognized the general right of competent people to refuse treatment, and in all but two states have also ultimately found that the U.S. Constitution, state constitution, or common law permits a surrogate to make treatment decisions on behalf of an incompetent person (Annas, 1990). The case of Nancy Cruzan is essentially identical to that of Karen Ann Quinlan, with one exception: Nancy Cruzan, a young woman in a persistent vegetative state because of a 1983 automobile accident, requires only tube feeding (rather than a ventilator and tube feeding) to continue to survive. Her parents firmly believe she would not want to have tube feeding continued under such circumstances, in part based on her own statement that she would not want to continue to live if she could not be at least halfway normal. For this reason, a trial judge authorized her parents to have their daughters tube feeding discontinued (Annas, 1990).

Case Study: Mr. Jones, age 37, is the CEO and owner of Jones Farm. He inherited the farm from his father and resides in the family home there with his wife Jane, age 35, and 4-year-old daughter, Angel. The Jones Farms is a large producer of various fruits, vegetables, and grains. Through trial and error, Mr. Jones, found a local company that produces an insecticide containing chlorpyrifos to be the most economical and effective insecticide for his crops. This insecticide has been used for almost 7 years at the farm for every crop produced. With easy access to this insecticide on the farm, it has been commonly used for pest control within their large home as well. Being proud owners of the crops grown on the farm, the Jones family often take advantage of the fresh fruits and vegetables available for their own table. Their consumption of the farms harvest has increased since the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted their finances. The Joneses and their toddler, Angel, enjoyed fresh fruit and vegetables from the farm throughout the day. Mr. and Mrs. Jones have recently grown increasingly concerned about their daughters development. They have noticed that Angel seems to still be having a hard time with potty training despite being 4 years old. She has not picked up on basic colors and animals sounds that her preschool peers have almost mastered. Angels preschool teacher has mentioned that all children learn at their own pace but has voiced another concern with Mr. and Mrs. Jones regarding Angels motor skills development. While Mr. Jones appears relatively healthy, both he and Mrs. Jones frequently experience migraines which they attribute to the stress of everyday life and finances. Mrs. Jones often experiences nausea and even vomiting along with migraines. After reading the case study and researching chlorpyrifos, respond to the following discussion points: Identify how the family members could have been exposed to chlorpyrifos. Identify the exposure pathway of chlorpyrifos. What organ systems were affected by the chemical? What observable acute and chronic effects could be produced from exposure to the chlorpyrifos? What effects were observed in the case study? How and why are the effects different in the individuals? (i.e., what individual profile factors can affect toxicity?)

Consider you have a friend or coworker who has a complete opposite position as you with regard to values, ethics, or policy. How do you take time to respect this opposite perspective as you consider your next project that requires both of you to share responsibility to get this project done?
DISCUSSION 1
Topic: The Top Ten List
1. In Colorado, you may see many persons advertise as personal coaches. One afternoon, your friend Pat declares that she has always had a knack for listening to people’s problems and is going to begin marketing herself as a therapist. Draw from the APA Ethics Code as much as possible to formulate your answers for the following questions.
· How would you respond to your friend?
· What ethical issues might arise if she follows through with her idea and begins to see “clients”?
2. NEXT create your own top 10 important codes from the APA code (one being most important to you and why). This top 10 list does NOT have to be related to this scenario above.
DISCUSSION 2
Topic: COLORADO LAW
On May 16, 2019, Governor Jared Polis signed the
HB19-1120 Youth Mental Health Education & Suicide Prevention
The new law, which took effect upon signature,
1. permits a licensed or registered mental health professional to provide psychotherapy services to a minor who is between the ages of twelve and fourteen years old, at the minor’s request, with or without consent of the minor’s legal guardian, if the mental health professional determines that psychotherapy services are clinically indicated and necessary to the minors well-being.
2. The mental health professional may advise the minor’s legal guardian of services provided with the consent of the minor or a court in specific circumstances, unless notifying the legal guardian would be inappropriate or detrimental to the minors care and treatment.
3. The mental health professional may notify the legal guardian, without the minors consent, if their professional opinion the minor is unable to manage their own care or treatment.
4. The law includes documentation requirements and specifies that psychotherapy services must be provided in a culturally appropriate manner.
5. The law also specifies that treatment without parental consent does not apply to inpatient treatment and that current law concerning liability and duty to warn for mental health professionals applies when a minor communicates a threat or intent to harm themselves or others.
With this in mind, answer the following questions:
IN YOUR POST, DO NOT TALK ABOUT ANYONE YOU KNOW past or present. We need to respect confidentiality.
1. What are the pros and cons for this law?
2. Who monitors the ethical application of therapy with the child if the parent is not there?
DISCUSSION 3
Topic: Open-minded or Biased?
1. Consider you have a friend or coworker who has a complete opposite position as you with regard to values, ethics, or policy. How do you take time to respect this opposite perspective as you consider your next project that requires both of you to share responsibility to get this project done?
2. In comparison, consider a therapist who has to work with a client who may have completely opposite values, political views or opinions? What would be a boundary to demonstrate that therapist was NOT OBJECTIVE with that client?
3. Finally, consider how our culture uses language to influence ethical decisions. What are the consequences of this influence? How does this impact your own choices and behaviors?
4. Here are some examples:
·
· downsize – fire employees,
· enhanced interrogation – torture
· ethnic cleansing – genocide,
· breaking in and robbing- home invasion
· person of interest – suspect in a crime
