This ethics course tackles the dual challenges posed by impaired healthcare workers: those struggling with drug addiction and the issue of drug diversion from patients and institutions. Delving into the causes behind these problems, participants will learn to identify the root issues and explore effective interventions. Professional codes of conduct will be examined, providing guidance on ethical behavior and emphasizing the healthcare worker's responsibility to their profession.
The consequences of these challenges extend beyond financial losses to facilities, professions, and professionals, impacting the quality of pain management and potentially leading to adverse patient outcomes, including fatalities. Through this course, participants will not only gain insights into these issues but also explore practical solutions. The program aims to equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge needed to uphold ethical standards and navigate these complex challenges responsibly.
