Write a 11 pages paper on ethical and legal health care issues. Against this background, this reflective project sought to critically analyze the ethical duty care owed to SNoBY if any and the tort law was given due consideration when implementing the procedures and protocols. The report specifically deals with explaining key concepts such as ethical and legal issues in health care as well as the tort law and how they can impact on the implementation of procedures and protocols in the operations of the organization.

501c3 is a non-profit organization that is developing and opening an in-patient drug and alcohol rehabilitation counseling facility called “Bristol Residential Addiction Therapy” (BRAT). This facility will be located on the property which is just adjacent to another already established non-profit organization that offers child care to low-income families called “Social Nurturers of Bristol’s Youth” (SNoBY). As a matter of conscience, the administrators at SNoBY are adamantly opposed to an alcohol and drug rehab facility being next to their daycare property and have unsuccessfully fought to prevent the BRAT facility from being built.

Given that I am the administrator of the BRAT facility, it is my responsibility to set up the procedures and protocols to run the rehabilitation center. Against this background, this reflective project seeks to critically analyze the ethical duty care owed to SNoBY if any and the tort law is given due consideration when implementing the procedures and protocols. The first part of the report specifically deals with explaining key concepts such as ethical and legal issues in health care as well as the tort law. The main body of the report will be concerned with analysing some of the considerations that can be attributed to BRAT’s liability of duty care to SNoBY.

Basically, the term ethics is primarily concerned with distinguishing between what is good and bad while special attention is focused on issues of morality and professional conduct where honesty and integrity should be seen.
