    Jerry’s medical training does not qualify him to issue the refill order. The patient’s physician is the one who needs to determine whether or not the patient should have a prescription of Valium issued for his flight or not. Jerry’s medical training does not qualify him to issue any prescription to any patient regardless of what it is and who it is for. If a patient’s prescription request was for control of high blood pressure that the patient critically needed on a daily basis Jerry would still not have the professional credentials to allow him to issue the prescription orders. If faced with such a scenario Jerry should explain to the patient that he does not have the right to issue a prescription of any kind but that he would make it his first priority to tell the receptionist when he or she returned from his or her lunch break.…

The laws were put into place to ensure that these professionals follow the correct procedures and steps that only qualified persons follow. The definition of practicing medicine has also been clearly explained. Those professionals who do not abide by these set laws are therefore subject to punishment by law (Baxter 2005).…

    In this situation I would tell the cashier I was given too much money. I typically look at my change before leaving the counter and in this case it would be immediately obvious that I had received too much. When I was a teenager I worked in a cash register environment and I know people can lose their jobs over having a short register. It was an honest mistake made by the cashier and I wouldn’t want anyone to lose their job. If I can prevent that from happening, I will gladly speak up and give the money back. In my personal value system, I typically live by the “golden rule”. If the situation was reversed I would want someone to tell me if I had overpaid. I also value my integrity and I would feel guilty if I knew I had received too much money and walked out of the store without saying anything.…

    Ethics Case Analysis

    This case presents a very typical situation that people encounter while working in the corporate environment. What is ethical, what is morally correct and what is just right out against the law are the questions that we all face while working in a corporate environment. Some of the ethical questions are governed by the law facing the situation. For example while working in an investment bank you most probably have access to inside information about upcoming deals that one could possibly use for personal monetary gain or you could act as a tippie and possibly share that confidential information with others. This kind of a situation is definilety governed by the law and you can actually be charged with various insider trading laws and possibly do some jail time as well. The other situation that is presented in the case is purely about ones ethical and moral standards. The analyst either has to compromise her loyalty towards her company B&B or towards her best friend Lori. While the situation presented is not a real zero-sum game, i.e., one player’s loss does not equal to the gain of the other player. When faced in a situation like this one has to think about what decisions can be made that will have the least affect on the players involved. The analyst should not look at the situation she faces as black or white. She should rather think about other options she might have to retain her friend’s loyalty while not compromising her loyalty towards her current employer. For example, Lori has already been laid off by her current employer, Universal group. The Universal group has already broken certain ethical and moral laws by not informing about the situation to B&B. So can the analyst come up with a situation where she can get Lori immediately and legally hired at B&B and convince her to share the information with B&B. In essence Lori will not have to feel guilty about not keeping the information confidential as has been laid off and the…

    Bribery is broadly and brashly widespread in our country. In the present era, the evil of bribery is more manifestly present in the developing countries. However, bribery has appeared not from any void, but it takes its roots from the society concerned. Bribery is the result of red-tapeism, low salaries, immoral activities, materialistic preferences, ever growing desires and finally lack of satisfaction and lack of deep sense of religious injunctions .…
