Case study: Doreen Richmond was a 68-year-old

Case study: Doreen Richmond was a 68-year-old woman with chronic respiratory problems from her years of smoking, was obese and had diabetes. She’d had a particularly troubled life, and after getting involved with the ‘wrong crowd’ in her early 20s a substantial criminal history. Doreen’s last crime was an attempted burglary. Unfortunately, things went wrong. Doreen shot and killed a shop assistant, and then an attending police officer. Doreen was sentenced to life imprisonment. Doreen had been an inmate at the Queensland Correctional Facility (QFC) ever since. Vera Bennet was the Prison Governor at QFC and a Justice of the Peace. Doreen’s chronic illnesses meant that she frequently visited the prison doctor. At one of the last consultations, the doctor recommended that she do an advance health directive, so that should anything happen, Doreen’s wishes could be considered. Doreen had always hated the idea that she might not be able to take care of herself in prison, so she completed the AHD, and had it witnessed by Vera Bennett. Doreen did not, however, appoint anyone as her enduring power of attorney. Because Doreen had been in prison so long, she’d lost contact with all of her relatives and friends on the ‘outside’. She did, however, develop a close friendship with another of the inmates, Bea Smith. Doreen and Bea made a pact to take care of each other for life. 1) Doreen ‘hated the idea that she might not be able to take care of herself in prison’. Identify one value that is reflected in this statement and describe it 2)describe how it may affect Doreen’s decision-making. SCIENCE HEALTH SCIENCE NURSING NRS 2805
