Practicing within a moral framework is expected professionally and framed within documents such as the Code of Ethics for Nurses in Australia (Nursing & Midwifery Board of Australia, 2013a) and Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in Australia (Nursing & Midwifery Board of Australia, 2013b). The challenge is for the profession to embrace our role as moral agents, actively educate staff and provide forums for multi-disciplinary teams to discuss and debate ethical challenges in practice.
