Huston (2024) discusses different philosophical and ethical schools of thought on the unionization of nurses. For example, given nursing’s professional responsibility to patient care, some question whether striking, a technique used by unions to exert pressure on management during collective bargaining negotiations, is ethically appropriate.
For this discussion, outline in an initial post, using supportive scholarly literature, your views and perspectives on the unionization of nurses (remember an opinion is only a good opinion if it is backed up with evidence based literature). Consider all of the potential implications as well as the political and historical context in which unions formed in the United States. If possible, share examples from the media to highlight your perspective.
For peer discussions, engage in conversations regarding the pros and cons of the supporting evidence provided by classmates that have shaped their views on the philosophical and ethical aspects of nursing unions. Remember to be respectful and open to the perspectives of your classmates in the discussion.
