I believe that my assumption about the nurse’s role in ethical conduct was correct. Not only is practicing ethics important, it is also necessary to understand the history of research ethics. By understanding the ethical principles and the history behind them, it allows for the best outcomes. Through researching the history of ethics, it makes it easier to understand why these concepts were established and how they can be best applied. Through taking this class I have learned about these ethical principles and the past history of ethics. I feel more prepared to participate in ethical research much more than before I took this class.
