CASE 1 :
Trigger LEN FOR STANDARD PRACTICE
As a student nurse, you observe a fellow nursing student making a medication error.
She is a good friend of yours and is visibly upset by her error. She is also afraid that
if she tells the clinical instructor, she could get a poor grade for clinical, and she
needs to have a good average to keep her scholarship. The client was not actually
harmed by the med error, and your friend seems sufficiently upset by the incident to
convince you that she wouldnt make a similar error again. What would you do?

Nurse student is Individuals enrolled in a school of nursing or a formal
educational program leading to a degree in nursing. Nursing students face a
large number of ethical issues, both in their capacity as students and
throughout their clinical training. Some issues are specific to nursing, and
others are the kinds of issues all students face. Nursing students need to
understand these issues, and to know where they can turn for assistance in
making these difficult decisions.
a) Educational Ethics
Many students, both nursing and non-nursing, have ethical concerns such as
cheating or plagiarism. It can be tempting to use an old paper from a former
student or to take the answers to a test that is being offered by another class,
for example. These kinds of ethical issues can plague a nursing student from
the beginning of the educational process until graduation.
Informed Consent :
Finding Help :
Nursing students are responsible for learning the tenets and skills required of
nursing care, according to the National Student Nurses Association's Code of
Academic and Clinical Conduct, which aims to lay the student's ethical and
clinical foundation.

2) Clinical instructor
Nursing instructors teach patient care to nursing students in classroom
and clinical settings. They demonstrate care methods and monitor hands on
learning by their students. They instruct students in the principles and
applications of biological and psychological subjects related to nursing. Some
nursing instructors specialize in teaching specific areas of nursing such as
surgical or oncological nursing.
Nursing instructors may be full professors, assistant professors,
instructors, or lecturers, depending on their approximately 41,000 nursing
instructors employed in the United States.
The duties of clinical instrustor are develops and executes a teaching
curriculum for nursing students. A nursing instructor will explain specifics
about the job to the students so they are prepared to work with patients in
clinical settings. According to career planner, a nursing instructor lectures
students, conducts and supervises laboratory work, issues assignments, and
directs seminars and panels. As a nursing clinical instructor, it's important to
be patient and supportive of the students while pushing them to learn as much
as they can while in the classroom so they can perform well in the clinical
setting.
In a clinical learning environment, instructors work with students and
faculty to ensure the continued education of aspiring nurses, health
practitioners and service providers. This position requires instructors to have a
love of the profession for which they provide instruction along with an
appreciation of academics.
In addition, clinical instructors conduct nursing interventions and
observe medical, surgical and allied health treatments to facilitate workplace
learning while preparing, administering and grading examinations to
determine student performance and achievement.
3) Medical error
Any incorrect or wrongful administration of a medication, such as a
mistake in dosage or route of administration, failure to prescribe or administer
the correct drug or formulation for a particular disease or condition, use of
outdated drugs, failure to observe the correct time for administration of the
drug, or lack of awareness of adverse effects of certain drug combinations.
There are many possible causes of medical error:

medication drawer.
2. Check the drug when removing it from the container.
3. Check the drug before returning it to the clients medication drawer.
b. Right dose
The nurse must know how to reduce the risk of errorby correctly
calculating doses and having them double-checked before administration.
Learning Objectives:

On the other hand, nurse must implement base from standard practic.

the student of nursing is the responsibility of the clinical instructor. While a student of
nursing which is responsible for a client have done of medication errors. Student
nursing two of my own to serving as a student of nursing 1 and then indirectly
involved in this. In accordance with the opening of the code of conduct by
management & nurse Indonesia, which is associated with the nurse and peer
relationships,
Nurses have always maintained good relations with other nurses and other
health workers, and maintain harmony in the workplace atmosphere and
achieve an overall health care (PPNI,2011)
Therefore, in the case as friends of my nursing students still have to be good friends.
To explain about what things should I do in terms of "good friends" I'll explain in the
"Problem Solving".
Based on these cases, it can be seen from various perspectives, both from the
viewpoint of WHO nursing students make medication errors, clinical instructor, and
we as a student nurse who was a friend of a nursing student and witnesses. In this
case one of the parties should not judge or justify a particular party because we are
required to think critically, logically and objectively.
a. Nursing student 1
Positive view :
Nursing student 1 seems sufficiently upset by the incident that
she was making the medication error. Its indicate that the
nursing student will not repeat mistakes. She still knows her
position and what mess she had done, so the dissappointment
feeling she had indicates her responsibility as nurse.
Negative view :
Nursing Student 1 was too scared and selfish to the client,
because just thinking about the future, as she could get bad
grades for clinical, and she needs to have a good average to
maintain the scholarship. Although medication errors that have
been made not to cause harmful effects for the client, but still,
her actions should be dealt with firmly. Assertive action by which
I mean in the form of punishment, but it depends on the decision

Positive view :
side.
Negative view :
As the party responsible for student nurses, clinical instructor
lack of supervision to the nurse student. He/she must observe
their actions, primarily related to the provision of intervention for
the client.
3. Creating an alternative action on the planned course of action and consider
the outcomes or consequences of such action
In accordance with the opening of the code of conduct by Indonesian Nursing
Association, which is associated with the nurse and peer relationships, "Nurses
always maintain good relations with fellow nurses as well as with other health
personnel, and maintaining harmony in the workplace as well as in achieving the
objectives of service health "(INNA, 2011) Therefore, in the case as friends of the
nursing students I still have to be good friends.
So what should I do in terms of "being a good friend" is giving advice to a student of
nursing to inform about the medication errors that have been made to the client to
her clinical instructors. It is very important although the effect is not harmful to the
client, for students of nursing 1 does not make the same mistakes or worse mistakes
he/she
also
has
someone
in
higher
position
than
him/hers
(e.g.
professor,lecturer) who can punish or fire the clinical instructor as the result of his/her
lack of supervision to the nurse student.
A nurse do their profession to fulfill the duties they have such as some points
below:
Perform all nursing duties in accordance with the state Nursing Act
Monitor patient progress and identifies any changes in status, acting on those
changes to insure patient comfort and safety
Nurse must fullfill the standard practice in nursing whenever he/ she works
6. Making decisions
Based on data that have been identified above, now well make a decision
about what should we do related with this case. As on the mentioned info on the
case, the fault nurse is looked so upset and afraid. These kind of situation will make
we, as her friends on dilemmatic situation.
Here are the factors that causes dilemma :

ethic. It also called and immorality cause we are hiding the truth.
The third factor is It was her first time do medication error. Even it was her
first error, it does not matter cause once she done a fault. It still called a fault and it
is irreversible. Same like the first factor we cant let it go. It will be good if on her first
fault, she feel guilty and do wont to do it again someday. It can be a good motivation
for her. Because it will be a good experience for her to work carefully.
The last factor is She should keep her mark related with her scholarship.
She was worried bout her mark related with her scholarship. But its a selfish act that
done by her. She just pushed her rights and loose the patients right. Patients should
get a satisfaction during the medication. But what she did is not giving satisfaction
through the patients. As a professional nurse, those kind of act is should not be
done. If she tell the instructor, we never know what is exactly will happen. The
instructor may be give a positive mark or tolerate it cause she is still a student. So
the best way is just tell the instructor.
