Abstract
"In this rapidly changing world, healthcare professionals face multiple challenges encircling ethical dilemmas. There is often a conflict between the healthcare professionals and patients regarding the best choice. The nurse is often the person who acts as an advocate and resource to the patient. One of the best tools which healthcare professionals especially nurses rely upon in these challenging situations is the ethical decision making process. The four principles of healthcare ethics namely (Autonomy, Beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice) presented by (Beauchamp and Childress, 2001) [1] provide us a direction to estimate the significance of the ethical decision in clinical setting. It is important to note here that the application of these ethical principles may vary according to the situation. It also depends on the laws governing to the principle and the conditions applied."
