Q

Beneficence (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 1. Occupational therapy personnel shall demonstrate a concern for the well-being and safety of the recipients of their services.

  • Includes all forms of action intended to benefit other persons.
  • Connotes acts of mercy, kindness, and charity
  • Requires taking action by helping others, in other words, by promoting good, by preventing harm, and by removing harm.
  • Ex. Protecting and defending the rights of others, preventing harm from occurring to others, removing conditions that will cause harm to others, helping persons with disabilities, and rescuing persons in danger
249
Q

Non-Maleficence (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 2. OT personnel shall refrain from actions that cause harm.
-“Obligates us to abstain from causing harm to others” The Principle of also includes an obligation to not impose risks of harm even if the potential risk is without malicious or harmful intent. (often is examined under the context of due care.)
-The standard of due care “requires that the goals pursued justify the risks that must be imposed to achieve those goals”
Ex. In OT, this standard applies to situations in which the client might feel pain from a treatment intervention; however, the acute pain is justified by potential longitudinal, evidence-based benefits of the treatment.

250
Q

Autonomy (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 3. OT’s shall respect the right of the individual to self-determination, privacy, confidentiality, and consent.

  • The Principle expresses the concept that practitioners have a duty to treat the client according to the client’s desires, within the bounds of accepted standards of care, and to protect the client’s confidential information. -Respect for Autonomy is referred to as the self-determination principle. However, respecting a person’s autonomy goes beyond acknowledging an individual as a mere agent and also acknowledges a person’s right “to hold views, to make choices, and to take actions based on [his or her] values and beliefs”
  • Individuals have the right to make a determination regarding care decisions that directly affect their lives. In the event that a person lacks decision-making capacity, his or her autonomy should be respected through involvement of an authorized agent or surrogate decision maker.
251
Q

Justice (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 4. OT’s shall promote fairness and objectivity in the provision of occupational therapy services.

  • The Principle relates to the fair, equitable, and appropriate treatment of persons
  • OT’s should relate in a respectful, fair, and impartial manner to individuals and groups with whom they interact. They should also respect the applicable laws and standards related to their area of practice.
  • Requires the impartial consideration and consistent following of rules to generate unbiased decisions and promote fairness.
  • As OT’s we work to uphold a society in which all individuals have an equitable opportunity to achieve occupational engagement as an essential component of their life.
252
Q

Veracity (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 5. OT’s shall provide comprehensive, accurate, and objective information when representing the profession.
-Based on the virtues of truthfulness, candor, and honesty.
-The Principle refers to comprehensive, accurate, and objective transmission of information and includes fostering understanding of such information
-Based on respect owed to others, including but not limited to recipients of service, colleagues, students, researchers, and research participants. In communicating with others, OT’s implicitly promise to be truthful and not deceptive. When entering into a therapeutic or research relationship, the recipient of service or research participant has a right to accurate information. In addition, transmission of information is incomplete without also ensuring that the recipient or participant understands the information provided.
Concepts of veracity must be carefully balanced with other potentially competing ethical principles, cultural beliefs, and organizational policies. Veracity ultimately is valued as a means to establish trust and strengthen professional relationships. Therefore, adherence to the Principle of Veracity also requires thoughtful analysis of how full disclosure of information may affect outcomes.

253
Q

Fidelity (Ethical Principles & Core Values)

A

Principle 6. OT’s shall treat clients, colleagues, and other professionals with respect, fairness, discretion, and integrity.

  • The Principle comes from the Latin root meaning loyal. Fidelity refers to the duty one has to keep a commitment once it is made -In the health professions, this commitment refers to promises made between a provider and a client or patient based on an expectation of loyalty, staying with the client or patient in a time of need, and compliance with a code of ethics. These promises can be implied or explicit. The duty to disclose information that is potentially meaningful in making decisions is one obligation of the moral contract between provider and client or patient
  • Whereas respecting Fidelity requires occupational therapy personnel to meet the client’s reasonable expectations, the Principle also addresses maintaining respectful collegial and organizational relationships. Professional relationships are greatly influenced by the complexity of the environment in which occupational therapy personnel work. Practitioners, educators, and researchers alike must consistently balance their duties to service recipients, students, research participants, and other professionals as well as to organizations that may influence decision making and professional practice.

Q

Paradigm Shift (History of Occupational Therapy)

A
  • The founding paradigm of OT was occupation, and the occupational perspective focused on people and their health “in the context of the culture of the daily living and its activities”
  • Beginning in the 1930’s, OT strove to become more like the medical profession, entering into a paradigm of reductionism that lasted into the 1970’s. During that time, occupation, both as a concept and as a means and/or outcome of intervention, was essentially absent from professional discourse
  • With time, a few professional leaders began to call for OT to return to its roots in occupation and since the 1970’s acceptance of occupation as the foundation of OT has grown
  • With that growth, professional debates about the definition and nature of occupation emerged and continue to this day
