Read each of the below scenarios, then make a decision about how you would solve the ethical dilemma. For each explanation, cite a relevant standard from an ethics charter to back up your decision. 1. Kendra is helping her manager dispose of some contaminated medical waste. When they take their bag of trash to the proper disposal area, Kendra notices that the door is locked for some reason. Her manager is on a busy schedule, and throws the waste in the regular trash instead, saying, "There isn't enough time for this. The garbage workers can deal with it now."

2. Martin is caring for a patient with hepatitis B, something the patient does not want people to know about until he is ready to discuss it with family and friends. At some point, the patient's mother arrives at the hospital and asks Martin what is wrong with her son. The mother looks very worried, and states how much she cares about her son's well-being.
