Various situations and perspectives are considered when helping individuals with substance use disorders, and subjectivity can blur the provision of client care and impact recovery and wellness outcomes. As such, professionals need to integrate ethical principles that are based on courage, empathy, humility, and respect.
This three-hour interactive training will review the Canon of Ethical Principles for the Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC). Topics include definitions, principles, and questions emerging from challenging situations. Content will further discuss the concept of "do no harm,” confidentiality, self-disclosure and more, as they related to the Canon principles.
