As a nurse, the Nurses’ Code of Ethics is a foundational guide as you practice your professional obligations with integrity and ideals. This assignment allows you build on those nursing ethics as they pertain to your academic work and writing.
As a university student, you are bound by Walden’s Code of Conduct. An important aspect of the Code of Conduct is maintaining academic integrity which includes avoiding plagiarism. Here you will familiarize yourself with a portion of Walden’s Code of Conduct called Academic Integrity. You are asked to acknowledge that you have read the Academic Integrity expectations of the Code to uphold your HIGHEST standards in your student practice as you already do in your nursing practice.
