Read the following case study and then answer the below questions
Jane is a 14-year-old girl who has suffered with an unknown, serious medical condition for the past two years. Jane’s parents are married and have a stable relationship. The marriage is a traditional one. The father works, and the mother stays home to care for the children and the home. Jane is the youngest of five children in the family. Jane’s family has religious beliefs that prohibit medical intervention of any sort. Instead, they rely on natural remedies and prayer. Although Jane and her parents have been able to manage her medical condition for the past two years, Jane is beginning to have symptoms that create pain and discomfort. In fact, recently Jane had such severe pain that her mother took her to an urgent care center, where the physician recommended hospitalization and surgery. Because the family does not believe in traditional medical intervention, the mother declined, took Jane home, and told Jane not to mention the urgent care visit to anyone. Two days later, after the father leaves for work and the rest of the children leave for school, the mother goes into Jane’s room to check on her. Jane is non-responsive, and her breathing is shallow. The mother tries to revive her with no result. She calls 911, and Jane is rushed in an ambulance to the hospital. An examination by an emergency physician determines that Jane is in very critical condition, which could have been averted if her mother had admitted her to the hospital after the urgent care visit. The physician calls child protective services, and the family is now under investigation. Jane remains in the hospital in the intensive care unit.
