After completing all of the ethical assignments and watching the movie “Miss Ever’s Boys” my understanding of what nurses contribute during ethical research has changed because before I thought nurses didn’t really have a big part in the ethical research I thought that went to a committee but now I know that there is more nurses do, they inform patients about some of the risks and benefits of being in the research or make sure that informed consent was signed and the patients understand what is going to happen. Nurses also look out of their patients they want to make sure that all the ethical principles like justice, beneficence, and autonomy. I think that it is important for nurses to know the historical evolution and principles that come with research ethics because it shows how far we have come and where not to go, we can look back at our mistakes and realize where we went wrong and know what to do better next time. I think that watching the movie and going through all the course objectives has helped me understand better what it means to do ethical research as a nurse and what that entails. Going through and achieving those course objectives will contribute to my quality improvement and EBP initiatives because now I know what I as a nurse can and cannot do/ what is asked of me. I now know that there are many more aspects to research that nurses take part in that just the collection of data, that can benefit not only the research but also the patient as well.
