You are a member of the hospital board at Memorial Hospital. Your hospital has just received a life-saving kidney machine that lengthens the lives of patients awaiting kidney transplants. This machine is extremely expensive to operate; however, the hospital has been gifted from a foundation the full costs to allow TWO people to use the machine.

The hospital has comprised a list of possible candidates to be chosen from, which has been attached. The list gives some background on the candidates and a psych report. The machine has been shown to cause mental distress in some patients so it is important to determine the stability of the candidates.

The chosen people will need to dedicate 24 hours/once a week to be connected to the machine. Their hospital stay and treatment is fully covered.

Here is some criteria to help you start your candidate evaluations:

– income is not an issue

-works on everyone but best between the ages of 19-35

You will create other criteria that you feel is importanat to help you narrow your decision. You will criteria/match this list against the patients to make your choices. You will pick TWO to receive treatment. You will also pick ONE person to be removed completely from the list. This will be a person who does not match any of your criteria.

You will post your criteria and how you chose it. You will explain how your two choices matched your criteria and why they are the best choices. You will also explain your one candidate that you are removing from the list and why. This discussion must be at least 10 sentences. You will also provide thoughtful comments on your classmate’s posts of their choices.
