Ethical Decision-Making Draft Paper

Write a 750-1,000-word paper in which you create an ethical dilemma that you could reasonably assume you might encounter in the population with which you plan to work.

Discuss what ethical boundaries are relevant in the situation and the importance of maintaining those boundaries.

Explain the ethical decision-making process. Frame the process around your dilemma when discussing each of the ethical decision-making steps that a paraprofessional must complete.

Address areas that may require collegial or supervisory consultation to resolve this dilemma.

Note: It is acceptable to get inspiration for this dilemma from the textbook if needed; you must create your own dilemma, not simply revisit one from the text.
