Health Medical Homework Help

For this discussion, you will explore a current social health issue from an ethical, nursing perspective. Using your knowledge of the ANA’s Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements (ANACOE), examine the implementation of safe injection sites (or overdose prevention sites/services). Describe the provisions of the ANACOE that may be used to support and/or discourage the implementation of safe injection sites. How might the social policy of legalizing safe injection sites in the United States impact health care and the ethical role of the nurse?

Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references (other than those in required readings), in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.
