Abstract
Nurse-patient encounters are influenced by the law and by morality. These frequently overlap and hold certain principles in common, such as justice and rights. Despite such close connections, the law and morality do not necessarily correspond. The difficulty in and complexity of reaching the right and just decision in the healthcare setting often highlight this.Keywords
