Question

Mary Katherine is caring for an elderly woman who has advised her she is estranged from her daughter and has not seen her in decades. Mary cannot understand how someone could go that long without seeing their child. The woman has stated she wants no visitors under circumstances even though she is critically ill. On Monday morning, a middle age woman appears at the nurses' station and advises Mary she is there to see her mother, the elderly woman. Mary Katherine feels that despite her request, the visit would likely allow her to die in peace, so she leads the woman to the room and allows them to visit privately. This is an example of: Maleficence Autonomy Justice.
