INTERNATIONAL CODE OF NURSING ETHICS Adopted by the International Council of Nurses The fundamental responsibility of the nurse is threefold: to conserve life, to alleviate suffering, and to promote health. The nurse must maintain at all times the highest standards of nursing care and of professional conduct. The nurse must not only be well prepared to practise but must maintain her knowledge and skill at a consistently high level. The religious beliefs of a patient must be respected. Nurses hold in confidence all personal information entrusted to them. A nurse recognizes not only the responsibilities but the limitations of her, or his, professional functions; recommends or gives medical treatment without medical orders only in emergencies and reports such action to a physician at the earliest possible moment. The nurse is under an obligation to carry out the physician’s orders intelligently and loyally and to refuse to participate in unethical procedures. The nurse sustains confidence in the physician and other members of the health team; incompetence or unethical conduct of associates should be ex¬ posed but only to the proper authority. A nurse is entitled to just remuneration and ac¬ cepts only such compensation as the contact, actual or implied, provides. Nurses do not permit their names to be used in connection with the advertisement of products or with any other form of self advertisement. The nurse co-operates with and maintains har¬ monious relationships with members of other pro¬ fessions and with her, or his, nursing colleagu es. The nurse in private life adheres to standards of personal ethics which reflect credit upon the pro¬ fession. In personal conduct nurses should not knowingly disregard the accepted patterns of behaviour of the community in which they live and work. A nurse should participate and share responsibility with other citizens and other health professions in promoting efforts to meet the health needs of the public — local, state, national and international.
