Ethics, ethics, ethics. That was all of Friday’s lecture. Ethics are underneath most questions of the exam. We discussed everything from a colleague struggling to things that need to be brought to the attention of the board.
Some helpful hints for ethics, the NASW code is the go to for studying, if you work in the United Sates and have not read it you should take a peak. The code governs everything from fee for service to confidentiality.
If you happen to be a NASW member then there is an Ethics hotline you can reach out to for advice.
