What ethical traits, concepts, and principles are presented in this article?
Ethical concepts in the article;
Confidentiality
Professional boundaries
Ethical traits guide people in their everyday life and in making decisions that are founded on ethical beliefs. Some situations highly test a person’s ethical and moral values. What someone decides makes up the kind of a person they are and how far they are willing to go to achieve a solution to a specific problem. Ethical traits are the guiding principles governing a certain code of behavior. Several ethical traits can be mentioned in regard to the article some of which are confidentiality, professional boundaries (Fly et al., 1997).Minor things can force people to compromise their basic principles. Education ethics should be able to emphasize on issues regarding confidentiality and professional boundaries. In this case, there was a failure to maintain the confidentiality of the other people. A good example is when a student transporting files that involved confidential information for fellow students left them in a public place and they were lost. Students should also not engage in conversations of a romantic or intimate manner with clients, supervisors or fellow students especially if the conversation is of harassing nature.
4How was the chosen ethical issue an example of poor ethical decision making?
The violation of confidentiality is detrimental to the wellbeing of the patient as it breaks the trust they have with their care providers. Without trust, a proper treatment plan cannot be implemented as the patient is less likely to tell the whole truth.
