case study on drying
The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into
contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge
and understanding of a diversity of faith expressions; for the purpose
of this course, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.
Based on “Case Study: End of Life Decisions,” the
Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the
required topic study materials you will complete an ethical analysis
of George’s situation and his decision from the perspective of the
Christian worldview.
Provide a 1,500-2,000-word ethical analysis while answering the
following questions:
- How would George interpret his suffering in light of the
Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the fallenness of the
world? - How would George interpret his suffering in light of
the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the hope of
resurrection? - As George contemplates life with amyotrophic
lateral sclerosis (ALS), how would the Christian worldview inform
his view about the value of his life as a person? - What
sorts of values and considerations would the Christian worldview
focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for
euthanasia? - Given the above, what options would be morally
justified in the Christian worldview for George and why? - Based on your worldview, what decision would you make if you
were in George’s situation?
Remember to support your responses with the topic study materials.
