[Expert Solution]: A nursing student is caring for a child…

A nursing student is caring for a child receiving chemotherapy. The child is ready for discharge and during the time the mother is receiving discharge instruction the student asks the child if it would be OK to take his picture. The student had cared for the child for 2 days so that child felt comfortable with the student and responded “yes.” The student took the picture and was so excited that her patient was doing well and being discharged that she posted his picture on her Facebook page so her classmates would see the child’s success. Three days later, the student was called to the Dean’s office as her post on her Facebook was reported. The student was expelled and the hospital banned the school from sending students to the facility. Evaluate what professional boundaries were violated. What critical components of professional boundaries apply to this situation? What ethical principles are violated? What legal parameters are breached? What considerations were not upheld related to Patient’s Rights? How should this situation been handled? Was the consequence appropriate? Why or why not?
