Part 1
Decisions regarding the approach for solving ethical dilemmas are influenced by many factors, including personal beliefs, social norms, and regulatory guidelines. However, human services professionals do not contemplate a particular model that guides their decisions or do not necessarily have insight into the factors that guide their decisions, when faced with ethical challenges.
In this assignment, you will analyze four different models of ethical decision making to understand how these models influence professionals, clients, society, and the overall field of human services. You will also see how these models might fit into your personal approach while making decisions regarding human services clients.
Tasks:
Using the Internet, the Argosy University online library resources, and professional literature, research and prepare a 3-page paper to compare the four models. Professional literature may include the Argosy University online library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov).
The paper should include the following:
· The factors (personal and societal) according to each model that drive ethical decisions
· The people who are affected by the decision
· The application to present-day human services
· The model you favor and the reasons for selecting this model
In addition, complete a detailed analysis for the deontological and utilitarian ethical orientations. Address the main philosophical differences between the two, considering the factors that influence ethical decisions. Which approach would be most beneficial to your clients? Discuss the rationale for the approach you select.
Part 2
A human services administrator is responsible for overseeing professionals belonging to diverse disciplines who work together in one agency. While the established ethics code for human services workers addresses many of the same standards that are familiar to most helping professionals, each discipline has a few ethics standards that are specific to its respective functions. For example, both psychologists and social workers protect the confidentiality of clients, are expected to be aware of their scope of practice, and have to obtain informed consent from clients before they can provide services; however, there are certain differences in other areas in their respective ethics codes. As an administrator, it is important to be familiar with such similarities as well as differences to ensure that each type of professional is managed within the specific parameters of his or her respective ethics code.
In this assignment, you will compare and contrast standards from the ethics codes of two human services disciplines and compare these with standards from the ethical codes for human services professionals in general.
Tasks:
Select two disciplines (for example, psychology, social work, ...

In this assignment, you will compare and contrast standards
from the ethics codes of two human services disciplines and
compare these with standards from the ethical codes for human
services professionals in general.
Tasks:
Select two disciplines (for example, psychology, social work,
counseling, or addictions counseling) for comparison with the
ethics code of human services. Research and address the
following points regarding the ethics codes of both disciplines
as compared to those of human services in a 3-page paper:
· Similarities and differences on the basis of the following
ethics standards: informed consent, privacy and confidentiality,
dual relationships, and competence
How personal values might conflict with or support one ethical
standard (e.g., informed consent, privacy and confidentiality,
dual relationships, and competence) in the work of the human
services professionals?
Paper 2 assignment
Case Analysis: John Smith
3. Obtaining informed consent for services from clients is required
of human services providers; however, it is not always an easy
task. Clients typically grant consent by signing documents
presented by the agency or the provider that, at minimum,
explain the services that will be provided, the client rights, and
information on the steps to rescind the consent.
In situations where minors or individuals under some form of
guardianship are the clients, it is necessary to obtain consent
from the legal guardian or authority. However, there are times
when obtaining informed consent is not as simple as asking for
a signature from the client or guardian. These situations require
more thought by the human services providers with emphasis on
balancing the client's right to consent with other factors that
might influence treatment outcomes or decisions.
In this assignment, you will review a case that illustrates the
various facets of informed consent.
The Case:
Smith is a thirty-eight-year-old African American male referred
for counseling by his mother to address recent incidents of
aggression. Smith resides with his mother because he is not able
to live on his own. Smith is unable to hold on to a job and has
difficulty establishing and maintaining relationships with
others. He is open to counseling but thinks his mother is
overreacting to his anger outbursts because she is old and does
not understand him. Recently, there have been notable conflicts
between them due to Smith's aggressive behaviors that were
directed toward his mother.
Tasks:
Analyze the case and in a 2-page paper, address the following:
· What steps would you, as the counselor, take for obtaining
informed consent from Smith?
· Would you, as the counselor, include his mother in the
counseling sessions, if you believe it would help with Smith's
aggression problem? Why or why not?
In your answers, consider the following:
· Smith is not able to live independently.
4. · Smith's aggression might put his mother at risk if he does not
get counseling.
· Smith has to comprehend what is being asked of him when he
provides his consent to receive counseling services.
There might be cultural differences between you and Smith.
