USE THIS TO ANYLIZE THE CASE!!!
Think through each of the four pillars of medical ethics
1. Non-Maleficence
2. Beneficence
3. Autonomy
4. Justice

Introduction
• Include a “hook” that names the case
• Lay the ground work for the whole paper; provide the background on the topic
• State the significance of the main issue in the case (e.g.: number of patients in situation, burden on healthcare system).
• Identify case precedents that are relevant if they exist.
• Describe the historical context of the issue and how it is changing; historical context refers to the place in history for the issue in the case. For example, over
the last several decades, how artificial fluids and nutrition (AF&N) is considered in a case has changed: previously, it was assumed to be a necessity for all patients
whereas recent cases have set a precedent that AF&N are a medical treatment that can be selected or foregone.
• Include the thesis statement

The ethical dilemma in the case
• Why is this an ethical dilemma? Which principles are in conflict?
• Use the “four topics approach” in your analysis.

Writing Tips
• Effectively use the Writing Advisers and the Writing Center
o Meet the requirement of the course – then go back once or twice for more help
o The Writing Center has Writing Advisors who specialize in working with students with the additional challenge of writing in a non-native language (ESL)
• Proofread
o Use spelling and grammar check tools (e.g., Spell-check, Grammarly, or other)
o Proofread your paper; your final paper should not have even one typographical error
• Improve the flow of your writing
o Use topic sentences to introduce paragraphs
o Read your paper out loud to yourself to catch awkward sentences or sections
o Have a friend read your paper and point out areas that are unclear
• The paper is yours and represents your ideas and opinions
o There is no need to use phrases like, “In my opinion” or “I think”
• Words that should not be used
o Contractions (e.g., don’t, can’t)
o Etc., “and so on”
o Any form of “finally,” “in addition,” “also,” “in conclusion”
o Weak words such as a lot, make, very, used to, seem, think, almost, very
o Pronouns that refer to the writer (e.g., I, you, me, we, they, us) or to a person included in the writing (e.g., she, they, them)
o The word, “it” – use the find function and replace all instances of the use of “it”
? Too often, I cannot figure out what you are referring to – help me avoid guessing
o Here is a challenge: Eliminate any form of “to be” (is, are, was)
? By doing this, you are forced to use a descriptive verb
• Use the vocabulary of clinical ethics

o Be sure to explain your statements and how the evidence supports those
o Refer to class material, providing your interpretation
o Explain any references including how the reference connects to your point
