Legal, medical, or ethics case study based on your selection to work in a group in Module 7. Use the basic facts from the episode Needle in a Haystack as a guide to complete this assignment.

Choose Medical, Legal, or Ethical to complete this final case study based on the following fact pattern:

Mr. Lippa, Stevie’s father, believes that his son was mistreated at the hospital, so he hires an attorney and sues the hospital for negligence and malpractice in the care and treatment of his son, Stevie because he believes the hospital did not honor his (Mr. Lippa’s ) wishes regarding treatment. He also claims that Dr. Foreman discriminated against his family and sues Dr. Foreman individually for discrimination.

Meanwhile, Dr. X, a surgeon at the hospital who saw Dr. Foreman discussing the consent to treat forms with the Lippa family, feels uncomfortable with Dr. Foreman’s “tone” and alerts the Hospital’s Ethics Board, which begins an investigation as to whether Dr. Foreman acted within Standard Operating Procedures when speaking with the family about Stevie’s care.

Eric Lacourse and his colleagues used questionnaires to measure several variables: suicide risk (yes or no), marital status of parents (together or divorced/separated), the extent to which the person’s mother and father were neglectful, self-estrangement/powerlessness (adolescents who have negative self-perceptions, are bored with life, etc.), social isolation (feelings of a lack of support), normlessness (beliefs that socially disapproved behaviors can be used to achieve certain goals), meaninglessness (doubting that school is relevant to gain employment) and drug use. In addition, the authors measured liking of heavy metal; they included the sub-genres of classic (Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden), thrash metal (Slayer, Metallica), death/black metal (Obituary, Burzum) and gothic (Marilyn Manson).
