Health care practitioners are in a unique position of balancing professional duty to be the client’s advocate and promoting ethical standards and code of conduct throughout the entire continuum of health care delivery. Professional and organizational morality is further complicated by several internal and external environmental factors such as federal and state law and regulation changes, shortage of resources and different cultural and shifting societal belief systems. This online course will examine the link between personal, professional and organizational morals and behavior by the application of ethical decision making frameworks, APTA Standards of Ethical Conduct and Principles of the Code of Ethics and legal and regulatory guidelines.

At the end of the course, the participants should be able to do the following:

Identify commonly reported ethical concerns in practice
Discuss and understand behavioral guidance in ethics
Examine personal vs. professional/organizational morality vs. societal morality
Identify legal and regulatory issues impacting ethics
Discuss frameworks for ethical decision making
Name the principles and standards of ethics that guide professional behavior and
performance
Implement the RIPS (Realm-Individual Process-Situation) Model of ethical decision
making
Apply RIPS to a case example
