Abstract

Key Points ◆ The advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) is uniquely trained and situated within palliative care teams to navigate ethical discussions. ◆ Professional codes of ethics, bioethical principles, communication principles, and support of moral agency are the foundation for such discussions. ◆ An ethical framework built on the cornerstone principles of advocacy, clinical sensitivity, truthfulness, and accommodation recommends that process rather than outcome is the appropriate focus when navigating ethical discussions.
