E-ethics. New dilemmas Emerge alongside New Technologies
Simpson, R. L. (2005). Nursing Administration Quarterly 29(2), 179-182.
This article starts with a nice distinction bvetween ethics and regulations (which is sometimes an issue). It is organized in 3 main sections: 1) use of the internet, 2) privacy and accuracy issues, and 3) ethics and decision support. It is a broad overview of these issues, but provides a good starting point. The issues are put into the context of the ANA code of ethics which gives most nurses a common starting point and shows how IT issues contribute to the healthcare ethical quagmire.
