Which is true of the American nurses association code of ethics for nurses?
Not quite sure what the question is asking because of the word ‘which’, but a little on the code of ethics for nurses. American Nurse Association is the National Regulatory association that supersedes individual state boards and smaller affiliate nursing organizations. The Code of ethics was created in 1995 and expanded upon since. It is a formal document that details the ethical principles that the nursing profession exhibits and is held accountable to. Legally, it can be referenced in court to validate or invalidate a nurses actions. It can only be amended or modified by the American Nurse’s Association Congress.
