ACM Code Of Ethics And Professional Conduct

Some things change, some things stay the same. The National Education Association (NEA) adopted a code of ethics in 1975 (Strike & Soltis 2009, p. viii). While this code still upholds many concerns that educators face today, it is important to make sure that a code of ethics is a breathing document. It must adapt and change with the changing of time. Strike and Soltis (2009) reference the code of ethics quite regularly throughout the entire book. It is first introduced in full at the beginning of the book. Looking over the code, it is important to remember that much has changed since it was first adopted. While all of the code still applies, it is necessary to add to the code to make it acceptable for the twenty-first century.

Article 8 gives examples on using the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct. The article gives the example of you taking over the role of handling the independence and ethical matters involved with auditing for a retiring partner in your firm. You are quickly given the task of determining whether or not your firm can provide auditing services to a client that owns a small, privately owned bank and a used car dealership. To perform work for the client you want to see the rules on how the firms will remain independent from the bank and car dealership, and you have a week to research any questions or concerns that you have with the potential client.

A nurse is given an opportunity to help patients, either if its by helping them through a very serious sickness or just helping a patient get to the bathroom on time, or a time when happiness is overfilling the room and a child is being born. Registered nurses provide a wide variety of patient care services (Mitchell, p.12). A Nurse must always know where to begin and where to stop, as any other career in the health field there is always something that cannot be done by everyone but only the certified person, a nurse must always remain inside her scope of practice to prevent any misunderstandings. A nurse must also follow a code of ethics , the code of ethics of the American Association of Medical Assistants states that a nurse should at all times render service with full respect and dignity of humanity, respect confidential information obtained by a patients file, uphold the honor and high principles the profession and accept its discipline, and last but not least always want to improve her services to better serve the health and well being of the community. (Mitchell, p.65).

After reading the discussion board forum I researched North Carolina’s Board of Licensed Professional Counselors website. I then searched for some North Carolina’s counseling websites to find local informed consents. The counselor that I found the most interesting is Robin G. Forgione, M.Ed., LPCS, NCC. I noticed she met most of the ACA code of ethics requirements and North Carolina’s entire requirements.

Great post! I like how you applied participants from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. In section A of the ACA code of ethics (2014), it focuses on the counseling relationship, that they encourage to actively attempt to understand the diverse culture backgrounds of the clients they serve.

Before our session is to begin I need to make you aware of the privacy and confidentiality policy of the community center. HIPPA is a law enacted in 1996, to provide privacy standards to safeguard the client or potential client’s medical records and any healthcare information (HHS.gov). Here you have acknowledged you understand the HIPPA law. As a counselor I must follow a code of ethics as outline in the ACA 2104 Code of Ethic, it covers five ethical principles I must abide by respect for Autonomy(clients right to choose their own direction), non-maleficence(do no harm), beneficence ( to do good), justice( act in fair manner) and fidelity (client interest above the counselors) (ACAcounseling.org,2014).

There is much to learn from all ancestral cultures including the new coin phrase sexual minorities . Mental heath professional is consistently evolving and practitioners must adapt to the changes within practice and ACA ethical guidelines. This paper explores a counselor 's level of competence, etiology findings for homosexuality, controversies with treatment practice by professional and paraprofessional therapy, and new frontier approach with client-centered approach. Since the multicultural movement has become a pillar for ACA code of ethics, it is with great importance to embrace new cultural styles. Although, the counseling field has a great paucity in empirical research; ACA task force remains optimistic in filling this gap. The objective is to help clients find congruence in their identity, belief, and values within their sexual orientation. Counselor must arm themselves with proficient training in multicultural competence, client-centered approach toward client identity edification, and having the integrity to guard clients from harmful clinical practice.

At the end of the last century, accountants began to organize and become a profession as state societies and boards of accounting debuted. At that time a few companies began to issue financial statements; however, there were no established standards, codes of ethics, or generally accepted principles. Practitioners wishing to represent the economic reality of an entity had to rely on professional judgement. Over time, the profession evolved so that committiees emerged to address these issues, and practitioners voluntarily abided by their guidance.

Ethical Implications: There are a couple ethical implications but I will name one. AAMFT code of ethics, Standard III Professional Competence and Integrity, Section 3.4 notes, “MFT do not provide services that create a conflict of interest that may impair work performance or clinical judgement” (Wetchler, 2003, p. 518).

Ethics can be defined as a value system that defines right from wrong, coming from a higher standard than the law. While Public Relations (PR) ethics consists of values such as “honesty, openness, loyalty, fair-mindedness, respect, integrity, and forthright communication,” (Bowen 2007) it often is thought to consist of lies and spin doctoring in order to protect the reputation of a person, group or organisation. While some critics may argue that this is true, ethics in PR allows PR and communications managers to determine between good and bad behaviour. (Bowen 2007)

Technology in the classroom is important to assist in the learning process; however this is creating new challenges for teachers. Teachers are now required to educate students on the importance of technology ethics. Computer ethics is the moral guidelines that govern the use of computers and networks (Shelly, G, Gunter, G, and Gunter, R 2012). Ethics in the classroom also requires teachers to explain what plagiarism is and the proper way for students to give credit for information attained from another source. Teachers must also have a plan in place to address internet security, as well as devise a student use agreement and discuss ethical practices while using technology in the classroom.
