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. Read the case study and then address the prompts in an essay:
Case Study:
You work at a shelter run as part of a social work agency that serves runaway teenagers, many of whom have endured painful pasts and suffered various forms of abuse. One day, as you are walking into your home late at night, a teenage client you have been working with walks up to you. She says that she was just kicked out of the house where she had been staying, by her friend’s mother, and she is hoping that you will let her crash on your couch. You don’t know how she discovered your home address, and she appears slightly ill or high. You know that most of the shelters have closed for the evening, you have a massive headache, and you can hear your dog barking, needing to get outside.
Citing three scholarly sources, in an essay (750-1,000 words), address the following:
Describe the 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.
Clearly state your ultimate decision about how to address the dilemma that is informed by social work values. Refer to Social Work Disposition #5: Value: Integrity; Ethical Principle: Social workers behave in a trustworthy manner when responding to this prompt.
How can a professional use of self help the social worker in this situation? How can reflecting on your personal experiences, cultural heritage, values, and beliefs help you develop your professional use of self?
