Personal Rights Advocacy through the Ethical Decision-Making Process – WEBINAR, November 30, 2017

Description

In this era of increasing ambiguity regarding promises and expectations, we are daily confronted by new perspectives on “What is the truth.” Add to that the complexities involved in providing care to a child, a dependent adult, or an elderly senior person, and the increasingly grey shades of “the truth” become exponentially more complex as they are multiplied against “What is the best thing to do?” Hence the evolution of bioethics. Finally, we are providing care to an increasingly diverse and complex population, people from ethnicities, cultures, sexual orientations, and religious preferences that may not be our own. This may give rise to an internal conflict between our personal beliefs and our professional duty. There are, however, well established guidelines to support us on respecting “personhood,” ensuring that the ends do justify the means, and aspiring toward beneficence over non-maleficence. This program is specifically designed to meet the Core of Knowledge section on Admission & Assessment Retention Nondiscrimination: Client’s Rights (GH), Psychosocial Needs: Client Rights (ARF), and Residents Rights (RCFE).

Course Objectives:

Upon successful completion of this Webinar, you will be able to:

• Describe ethical considerations in terms of advocating for resident/client rights.
• Identify guidelines in approaching ethical decision making.
• Demonstrate the use of a bioethical approach to a given case scenario.
