ABSTRACT
When ethical or pragmatic questions arise concerning surrogate decision-making, nurse administrators often are consulted, so they must be knowledgeable about current legislation as well as the surrogate decision-maker's role and ethical obligations. Case exemplars are presented in this article to facilitate the reader's awareness on how value conflicts and communication failures can complicate surrogate decision-making. Recommendations for clinical practice and research are presented.
