Question 1

Boundaries exist in every context whether it is professional or personal. As stated by Masters, professional boundaries draw a line between the nurse’s power and the patient’s vulnerability (2020). A nurse has power because of the knowledge and the role she plays in the patient’s care and the amount of information she has access to regarding their health. The balance must be maintained for the integrity of nurse-patient relationship to be intact (Masters, 2020).

A violation of a professional boundary occurs when said balance is altered from either part. This creates a lack of trust and puts in jeopardy the relationship. There are many ways in which a nurse can cross or violate professional boundary such as lying, disrespecting, altering information and more serious ones include sexual misconduct or exploitation (Masters, 2020).

Patients are often extremely grateful for the hard work nurses do. In their effort to show this they can engage in gift giving. However, nurses allowing or receiving compensation of some sort such as monetary for the services given constitutes a violation of boundary (Masters, 2020). Also sharing personal information, intimate details or behaviors such as flirting can be considered a violation or crossing of boundaries (NCSBN, 2018).
