A human service professional is working with a particularly difficult client wno presents an ethical dilemma to this professional. In responding to the client, the professional realizes that if he uses the NOHS ethical code, he would have to respond in one way, but if he uses the APA code, he can respond in a different manner, more in harmony with what he would like to do.

Solutions

Expert Solution

  1. The code of conduct that a professional uses needs to be in harmony with the organization of which the professional is a part of. Also, a professional needs to follow the code of conduct given by the authority who has given that professional a license to practice. If the professional follows the same code of conduct given by the licensing authority and/or the organization, it’s professional, legal and ethical. If not, it’s unprofessional and maybe illegal or unethical.
