    3. What recommendations might an ethics committee make to the practitioners/administrators (assuming this case went to the EC before his death)?

    Question #2:

    1. Reflecting on the readings for this week and your review of your organizational consents, what did you learn about consents in your organization/department? How do they compare or contrast to the legal and ethical standards discussed by Darr and Grant & Ballard?
       
    2. What could be enhanced in your organization and how could you as an ethical leader do to improve shared decision-making in your organization?
