Knowing how to apply the NASW Code of Ethics to decision-making is essential in Social Work. This assignment will help you learn this skill. Use the macro level ethical dilemma case study provided. Write a 1,800-2,000-word essay detailing the following:
- Describe the ethical dilemma.
- Select an ethical decision-making model or framework. Identify each step you would take to resolve the dilemma according to the decision-making model/framework you selected. Using the NASW Code of Ethics, justify your rationale using the accompanying values, principles and standards, stating which ones are in conflict in the case study.
- How would you apply dimensions of diversity in the use of the ethical framework you chose?
- Using the ethical dilemma scenario, discuss how supervision and consultation would guide and impact your decision making. Discuss how you would navigate direction from your supervisor if it conflicted with your personal ethics.
- Clearly state your ultimate decision about how to address the dilemma that is informed by social work values.
Be sure to cite three to five relevant scholarly sources in support of your content. Use only sources found at the GCU Library, Social Work websites or those provided in Topic Resources.
