Course Description


This is an introductory level course covering the essentials of clinical ethics in Speech-Language Pathology based on the latest version of the ASHA Code of Ethics. Speech-language pathologists across all service areas are faced daily with higher demands for productivity in a "do less with more" environment. Fundamental ethical terms, definitions and principles will form the basis for providing a guideline in order for SLPs to make informed, ethical decisions in their clinical practice or research endeavors. Ethical dilemmas will be discussed.
