Code of Ethics for Nurses
It is one of the prerequisites for a profession to have professional code of ethics to discipline own practice. Since JNA adapted "Code of Ethics for Nurses" in 1988, the condition of nursing profession has changed greatly and nurses are frequently confronting complicated and difficult ethical challenges as health care become advanced and complex and people have high interest in their right. Therefore, JNA reviewed and revised "Code of Ethics for Nurses" in 2003. JNA Code of Ethics for Nurses is the bases of Japanese nurses to do ethical discretion in their practice.
