Nursing Practice. The ethical issues 1984) These are conditions or structures in the HCW’s external work environment that prevent him/her from following through on a course of moral action s/he deems correct. Policies and procedures, laws and regulations, the demands and wishes of patients and families, and the medical hierarchy are some of the external constraints acting upon providers at every level. Policies, regulations and laws may prevent HCWs from providing the resources they believe the patient needs. Hierarchical structures may inhibit good communication, making it more difficult to resolve conflicting perspectives on the priorities of care. Decision makers may fail to include all affected clinicians in decision making. Patient or family wishes in conflict with the advice of the health care team may constrain the providers’ ability to take the moral action they consider to be best for the patient. Internal constraints that place a HCW at risk for moral distress are the individual’s unique characteristics that cause him/her to hesitate or to avoid taking the action s/he feels is necessary in an ethically challenging situation. The HCW may feel intimidated by others and fear retribution or humiliation. Some workers, especially relatively inexperienced ones, may feel uncertain about their knowledge and lack the confidence to speak up. An experienced HCW who has tried and failed in the past to address moral or ethical issues may simply become apathetic or hopeless about doing so in any new cases. In these examples of internal constraints, the interpretation is that the individual rather than the system is the constraining force.

If a HCW fails to speak out about an ethical issue because s/he feels intimidated and is afraid of retribution, is the HCW alone responsible for that behavior or does the system that fostered the intimidation share responsibility for it? If the HCW is inherently too xxxx and apathetic to risk stating an opinion, then perhaps this is truly an intrinsic constraint. But if the reason the HCW fears speaking up is that others have done so and have been berated for it, or indeed that s/he has been verbally attacked for taking action, then the constraint may be external to the individual suffering the moral distress; it may be ...
