The ANA offers nine provisions, each of which addresses ethics and morality. The Canadian divides his work into two parts; Nursing values, ethical responsibilities and ethical efforts. The ANA has one to three basic points on principles such as the nurse-patient relationship, patient advocacy, and upholding the integrity of nursing practices. The CNA code assumes that nurses are able to self-reflect and evaluate their own values. This is an important characteristic for nurses to be able to adhere to everyday ethical values in nursing practice. In Part 1 of the CNA Code, seven nursing values are identified as ethical responsibilities. This differs from the ANA in that the code does not focus on self-reflection and the codes serve more as principles to follow. For example, in the ANA code, provision 1, nursing practice should practice respect and dignity for each individual. Treating individuals with respect is known as a principle of humanity. The CNA code binds every nurse to ethical responsibilities and not to principles. Throughout the CNA, ethical principles are posed as ethical responsibilities that nurses must respect in nursing practice. In the second part of the CNA, ethical efforts are discussed. CNA draws attention to the system, in creating equality and addressing disparities globally
