    EP2.1.2: Apply social work ethical principles


    to guide professional practice

    EP2.1.2: Apply social work ethical principles


    to guide professional practice
    Social workers have an obligation to conduct
    themselves ethically and to engage in ethical
    decision making. Social workers are
    knowledgeable about the value base of the
    profession, its ethical standards, and relevant law.

    Practice Behavior 2.1


    Recognize and manage
    personal values in a way
    that allows professional
    values to guide practice.

    Many of our clients are


    elderly, disabled, and
    living in poverty. Their
    homes are sometimes run
    down, unkempt, and even
    infested with vermin. It is
    important to understand
    this as a social condition
    and not a personal failure.

    Practice Behavior 2.2


    Make ethical decisions by
    applying standards of
    NASW/IFSW/IASSW Ethics
    in Social Work, Statement
    of Principles

    SWs at agency are guided


    by these principles.
    Seeing them put ethical
    principles into practice
    with their caseload helps
    me to see Ethics in
    practical, rather than
    theoretical, terms.

    Practice Behavior 2.3


    Tolerate ambiguity in
    resolving ethical conflicts.

    Some SA/IH clients have


    mostly recovered from
    the original medical
    condition which made
    them eligible, but SWs at
    agency keep them on the
    program to enhance their
    quality of life. This is part
    of putting clients first.

    Practice Behavior 2.4


    Apply strategies of ethical
    reasoning to arrive at
    principled decisions.

    For example, SWs at


    agency have arrived at
    the reasonable conclusion
    that sometimes accepting
    small tokens of
    appreciation from clients
    is a way of respecting
    their culture, even if a
    technical violation of
    agency policy.
