Sociology

Managing personalities and agendas of others can be a very daunting task at times not to mention, downright impossible to resolve. For example, my best friend decided to encourage the employment of a female acquaintenance within the same department hes employed. Little did we know their personal issues would spill-over into the workplace Within a matter of weeks conflicts of interest were spreading like an epidemic from one department to another. I eventually found myself in a mediator position struggling to savage my best friends job and possibly others who were being affected by their conflict.

From a consult team perspective an effective manner or approach could be sought in a variety of ways when dealing with conflict resolution. One in particular would be through first discovering, understanding and addressing the issues in a serious manner. Secondly, a consult team could establish a forum for the purpose of sharing concerns as well as addressing questions with viable solutions. Most importantly, every issue should be addressed wholeheartedly and not taken lightly.

A vitalist is virtually someone who believes life is not predicated upon the laws of physics or chemistry but is somewhat self-determining. With that said and based upon my readings it would impossible to not conclude that those who oppose artificial nutrition and hydration are indeed vitalist. Case in point, there are such goals practiced by theorist and activists which can only be accomplished by helping individuals discover that changing health conditions as well as impaired cognition shouldnt be a recipe for pulling the cord on any human being.

If the 4-D model of ethical decision-making has to be applied, we must first identify a problem then apply the proper code of ethics as well as determine the temperament and magnitude of the situation while generating a potential course of action thats capable of being evaluated and implemented without harm. Whats important to remember under such conditions is that different professionals may apply a slightly different course of action thereby creating the possibility of value differences and usually theres never one particular answer to such a complex ethical situation as was the case involving Terry Schiavo. Nevertheless, if the 4-D model is followed, it would assure that a professional explanation can be given for the chose course of action.
