Moral Courage in Restrictive Environments

In this crossover episode of Art of Emergency Nursing and How Not to Kill Your Patient, we dive into the critical topic of moral courage within the nursing profession. Kevin and Lisa discuss Lisa’s recent study on how emergency nurses handle ethical dilemmas, particularly in states with restrictive abortion laws. We explore the complexities of balancing professional and personal ethics, the barriers nurses face in acting with moral courage, and the systemic challenges that impact their ability to provide ethical care.
