APA Ethics Update Offers ‘Bonanza’ of New Material
By Joan Arehart-Treichel
...
“If pressed, I would say the two new opinions in the ‘Resident,
Student, and Other Trainee Issues’ section—one regarding residents'
refusal to admit patients from certain hospitals or with certain
diagnoses and the other on whether it is ethical to date the mother of
a former patient—would rank as the most important for two reasons.
...
“Secondly, these two new opinions provide a bonanza of ethical
material for consideration by the practitioner and for teaching
purposes.
Together they bring into play confidentiality, boundary issues, family
dynamics, informed consent in minors, collaborative therapy,
organizational ethics, access-to-care issues, duty to report suspected
deficient patient care, respect for the law, and the Emergency Medical
Treatment and Active Labor Act.”

It is one of those days when the public library will not allow me to
access my email account online, due to freeze-up-the-screen issues.
And no one in my life -- from previous physicans to friends -- will
answer me.
My life was DESTROYED by issues no one, including a Legal Aid lawyer,
will explain to me.
