Case: A military RN is ordered to force feed a terrorist prisoner while he is undergoing interrogation. The prisoner is on a hunger strike protesting his capture and highlighting his cause. The nurse is to ensure the prisoner remains hydrated and fed so he can provide information, and does not starve. The nurse is torn. On the one hand, the nurse has strong loyalty to the military objective of ensuring public safety by uncovering terrorist plots along with fear of reprisal if orders are disobeyed. Yet the nurse is appalled at the over-riding a patient’s wishes by force feeding him against his wishes.
