Activity Summary

Learn about the conceptual development and state of the science on moral resilience. Guided by an expert in both moral resilience and clinical ethics, explore a case study fraught with conflict between an organ procurement organization and surrogate decision-maker. See how moral resilience enables nurses—in collaboration with clinical ethicists—to grapple with issues like conflict between surrogates and organ procurement organizations regarding the timing and location of withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments and use of normothermic regional perfusion in donation after cardiac death.

Objectives

  • Describe the six pillars of moral resilience and their application to a complex organ-donor case study.
  • Consider the role of the ethics consultation service to support moral resilience.
  • Identify opportunities to develop self-stewardship in response to moral adversity.
