PT/OT Ethics Courses
Let's Get Ethical: Ethical Boundaries for PTs/OTs
The motto of Let’s Get Ethical: Ethical Boundaries for PTs/OTs is based on moral psychology. Moral psychologists believe that people rely on intuition first and reasoning second in grey ethical situations. People have differing intuition in these grey situations, therefore:
“IT’S OK TO BE GREY”
It refers to the reality that we don’t always have the answers or clear-cut ethical guidance from the APTA and AOTA Code of Ethics. It is ok to be unsure when faced with an ethical dilemma, and it is often unfair to judge other clinicians that make ethical decisions that are different from your ethical judgment as a clinician.
The course is offered both live virtually and on-demand.
It is approved by the New Jersey Board of Physical Therapy and fulfills the 2.5-hour physical therapist ethics CEU requirement. It is also approved by the Ohio Physical Therapy Association, NY Board of Physical Therapy, and the American Occupational Therapy Association. The Objectives of this physical therapy ethics course and occupational therapy ethics course are:
