Comprehensive Code Of Ethics: Case Study

6. All employees will be open in attitude and action toward all persons regardless of race, creed, social class, religious beliefs, lifestyle, or position or influence within the organization and community.

I thought your discussion post this week was great. After looking at exercise 4-4 I completely agree with you that using PRN nurses and working with float nurses is such a smart idea. Decreasing discharge teaching time like the manager wants to do on the unit is unsafe and unethical to patients. The nurses on the unit are doing their part by providing excellent patient care, but reducing education can lead to dangerous outcomes for patients in the long run. Provision 3 of the ANA Code of Ethics (ANA, 2015) states that nurses should promote, advocate, and protect the rights, health, and safety of every patient. By implementing your proposed thoughts I really do believe wait times and patient satisfaction could certainly improve. There are always

In order for Steve to make an ethical decisions he has to consider his values and principles. One of the major values Steve must consider is his value of respect for life. Due to the fact that Debra is pregnant, Steve is actually treating two patients and two lives. While making the decision as to whether or not to send Debra to the perinatologist, Steve must think about if he doesn’t how it will affect both Debra and the baby. Steve must also consider the double effect as one of the principles. The double effect states, “sometimes it is permissible to cause a harm as a side effect of bringing about a good result” (McIntyre, 2004). In Steve's case with Debra, this could work either way. Steve could either refer Debra to the perinatologist

Following the Code of Ethics provided by APEGA is an important responsibility of those privileged to be a Professional Engineer. Though following the code might not be in ones best interest, it is meant to maintain the values and standards of the whole profession. Example below:

For the CRCC Code of Ethics it can better guide individuals in this certain situation. After reviewing the CRCC Code of Ethics there was several areas of CRCC Code of Ethics which could be applicable in this situation. The first section that could be applicable would be Part A section 3 of which will allow the counselors to form a limitation, rights and guidance for the client. For example in this situation the child is not adjusting to school and by forming a guideline for the student it can show how the student could better cope. The next section that could be applicable would be Part A section 4 of which avoiding harm to the client. For example this student did acquired a spinal cord inquiry and having a hard time adjusting to school however by being a recent graduate student the values and beliefs might be different versus someone whom has been on the job for a couple of years. Another area of the CRCC Code of Ethics that could give guidance would be all of section B. Since in this area of the CRCC Code of Ethics is based upon some of the most important aspects of dealing with clients which are the confidentiality, privileged, communication and privacy of the clients.

The American Red Cross is one of the most prominent and ever evolving organizations of our century. They’re a company that helps prevent and formulate drastic measures to small measures to relieve the suffering that people go through every day in the face of emergencies. They are as effective and efficient as the military as they can mobilize forces of volunteers and with willing to give from donors strengthen and power American Red Cross. They are the main and primary emergency preparedness and response organization. The ARC will and is always ready to bring gracious, protecting, and saving comfort to all humans that are face to face in disastrous situations and crises, from tsunamis to tornadoes to earth shaking quakes. Red Cross turns to volunteers to many of the members of the military to give and provide lifesaving blood for the need of survivors of disasters around the world, every time the clock ticks a second, and every day that the sun rises.

As per my point of view, YES, Humphreys did wrong and he go against the code of ethics. He really did a lot of things wrongly which were inappropriate for every people. He shouldn’t have follow the other men secretly and get their licensee number. Also, he shouldn’t have impersonate himself and visit other men’s home with false and ostensible reasons. If I was a men followed and interviewed by the Humphreys, I would have behave inappropriate with him because he was not doing an appropriate things by disguise himself to get other people’s personal things. We know that every people have own personal space ,and no one likes to be interfered by other people. So, as like as other, I will never let myself to be known and followed by a people like

Very informative post on Ebola. You stated  “As a professional, the nurses is expected to reflect and move beyond feelings to provide the same level of care to every patient, regardless of diagnosis, skin color, ethnic origin, or economic status” (Hinkle & Cheever, 2014, pg. 30). I agree with your ANA code of Ethics because nurse are morally obligated to provide care to patients with EVD. "Nurse have a professional obligation to educate themselves about the proper nursing care of patients with EVD and the recommendations for PPE type and is articulated in provision 5 of ANA code of Ethics."(ANA, 2015).  What do you think about these patients being treat in ICU verse on a Med Surge floor?

I think it would be more advantageous for the company to maximize their diesel trucks. While Hydrogen may be the wave of the future, it has not arrived yet. Diesel engines, while nosier that other engines still offer up to 30% better mileage. Than gasoline engines. Diesel has been available for years, it’s relatively cheap to use and offers better mileage and longer engine life than gasoline. But all is not peaches and cream for diesel motors, they are noisy and offer lots of vibration. They are also terrible for the air, so they require more expensive equipment to combat strict emission standards. Because diesel has been a part of our economic system so long all the necessary infrastructure is already in place.

The Code of Ethics for the Health Information Management team is a very serious topic that should never be taken lightly. If your staff is not trained properly according to the code and, or if your staff is trained properly, but not adhering to the code…then your team could face some serious repercussions in the not so distant future. Yes we’ve all heard the saying that, some rules are meant to be broken, but be forewarned…these are not the rules you want to play with. The code includes principles and guidelines that are pretty straightforward and the HIM Staff should have no issues in heading in the right direction with these policies; however, if they don’t follow through these policies are enforceable.

There are many ethical codes and guidelines a supervisor should follow. One of the most important ethical codes refers to competency. The American Counseling Association (2014) and the Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES) (2011) both reiterate the importance of competency professionally as a counselor and supervisor. Counselors are only to practice within their scope of competence. This is based on the counselor’s education, training, experience, and credentials (ACA, 2014). This includes experience and training as a supervisor. The ACES (2011) stated supervisors should only provide supervision for supervisees and clients that fall within their scope of training and expertise. The supervisor should be continually engaged in education to ensure continually competency (ACES, 2011). Competency is important because acting outside one’s level of competency puts the supervisor’s career at risk, can harm the supervisee, harm the client, and raise liability issues.

The codes of ethics are very important in the educational field. These regulations were designed to ensure the safety of students and educators. In the State of Mississippi, I have identified the standard one code as being priority. I feel that is important to maintain professionalism at all times. Even though this address ethical issues, professionalism in itself Principle I:  Responsibility to the profession clarifies any misconceptions about what is acceptable behavior. The MCEE principle which addresses the responsibility to the profession, does not allow individuals to use a lack of knowledge about codes of ethics to excuse one from misconduct. Therefore, each individual is held accountable for any misconduct.

The case study of “A Shameful Waste” was particular interesting; the state law requires that individuals of certain professions hold seats on a county’s planning committee for solid waste. However, residences are calling for a recall campaign to rid two committee volunteers due to an apparent conflict of interest. The individuals being held accountable are Mark Matthews and David Parkinson, because Efficient Disposal services, who Matthews is the President of, proposed a new landfill to be placed in the township of Barker. The town is strongly against this and have signed petitions to resolve this issue. The fact of the matter is that since the two were accused of such an act, it will be difficult to diffuse. Although Parkinson stated that he is there for the community and "will do what they think is best. If they think there is a conflict of

Progress: Ms. Borkovec has been offered supervised visits by the FITS twice a week for two hours. FITS worker reported that Ms. Borkovec is engaged and interactive with Aydden and Issac. Ms. Borkovec and her children enjoyed their time together during the visits. However, the worker reported that Ms. Borkovec had canceled three appointments with FITs. FITS Supervisor reviewed with her FITS policy of not missing more than three visits, otherwise possible suspension from services could occur. Ms. Borkovec was warned that she was nearing that and the missed visits due to illness would not be held against her according to FITS Supervisor.

As a therapist, there will be times when you are personally treating a child who is present, without their consent. Parents often bring their children to therapy when they feel that an issue has escalated and they can no longer handle the situation. Being a therapist, you should be prepared for instances as such and learn to build rapport with the children so that they are more comfortable when speaking with you. You want the child to trust you despite what they think their parents have told you, previous to their visit. Building rapport is extremely necessary when dealing with any client, but especially children. There are also several instances where issues will arise that will force you to educate yourself further with the AAMFT Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics are beneficial to the well-being of the therapist and can prevent them from getting into a legal bind. I will be discussing the outcomes to several issues given, and also addressing what I would do personally when faced with these oppositions.
