#  The Management and Resolution of Ethics Issues

**Presentation Date:** 27 October 2021

**Duration:** 1:18:52

**Return to:** [AuDacity Archive](https://www.audiologist.org/audacity-archive)

Many hours are spent studying the various aspects of ethical principles and practices, to understand codes, guidelines, and related regulations. Rarely, however are professionals apprised of the processes of resolving unethical behavior or mitigating ethics issues. What process model is recommended when a professional observes a fellow clinician engaging in unethical behavior? How should one respond: should they themselves be accused of unethical practice? What processes do regulatory agencies and codes of ethics provide for professionals? This presentation will explore and outline the process of ethics resolution in cases where ethics codes may have been breached. This model will review and discuss resolutions at the lowest and most effective levels, while addressing the most egregious violations and the resolution interventions necessary for more serious concerns. Ultimately, the discussion will center around how resolutions can protect patients, clinicians, as well as the profession.
