Mr. Jay is 72 y. O. And in a nursing home. He is alert and well-oriented, but has partial paralysis of his left leg. The nurses want his bedrails up at night because he is very unsteady on his feet, especially when not fully awake. But Mr. Jay was a POW in Vietnam and does NOT want the bedrails up. He signs a written refusal for the bedrails, agreeing that the nurses are not liable if he falls. The nurses move him to the room across from the nurses station, put the bed in the lowest position possible and keep the light on at night. Eight weeks later, Mr. Jay falls but is not seriously injured. • Legal, ethical, both or neither?
