  • Ethics Forum - Dual Relationships in Rural Areas

    Ethics Forum - Dual Relationships in Rural Areas

    When you are a social worker in a small town, in a small state, dual relationships are bound to come up. How do you best manage these? When do you avoid them? How do you provide necessary care?

    Ethics are rather easy when there is only one standard to consider. Ethical dilemmas, when more than one standard is in conflict with another, is where supervision &/or peer consulation comes in.

    During this hour, Jacob Stone will give a mini-presentation on dual relationships then participants will be given ethical dilemma case scenarios to process in small groups. The groups will then come back to the main zoom room to report their decision making processes.
