Instructor's Name: Joel Desotelle, MS OTR/L

Online/Printable/Mailed - 3 Contact Hours - Description: Gabard and Martin (2003) maintain that: “Ethics is the heart of professionalism,” and is as important as technical skill in practice, since it allows"therapists to provide quality services for patients, work effectively with colleagues, and maintain the trust of the public.” This course discusses the complexity of making ethical decisions in the reality of the complicated, multi-faceted health-care environment today. It provides a primer of ethical theories, gives a formula for analyzing tough ethical dilemmas, and presents this against the background of the AOTA Code of Ethics.
