Question Description
I’m working on a nursing discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Discuss the potential controversy when considering a patientàright to know whether a caregiver has AIDS, and the caregiveràright to privacy and confidentiality. Consider the following: A physician cut his hand with a scalpel while he was assisting another physician. Because of the uncertainty that blood had been transferred from the physician’s hand wound to the patient through an open surgical incision, he agreed to have a blood test for HIV. His blood tested positive for HIV and he withdrew himself from participation in further surgical procedures. Discuss the ethical and legal issues.
