Care and Justice Reasoning in Nurses’ Everyday Ethics

Presenter: Dr. Soile Juujärvi, Laurea University of Applied Sciences, Finland

The ethics of care and justice represent two modes of moral reasoning that nurses use in solving real-life ethical dilemmas. In this seminar, Dr. Juujärvi will present results from a cross-sectional survey that investigated what types of dilemmas nurses encounter in everyday work and to what extent they use care versus justice reasoning to solve them.
Dr. Juujärvi concludes that highly regulated healthcare environments prefer rule-oriented justice reasoning that may supersede care reasoning in addressing patients’ situations.

The presentation is based on the following paper published in Nursing Ethics, available here:
