  This article, found in AJOT, describes the use of the clinical model "CELIBATE" to problem-solve through an ethical dilemma. The method of using CELIBATE guides a clinician to solving an ethical dilemma using 10 steps. These steps include: identifying the problem, identifying facts, naming parties that our effected, identifying nature of the problem, examining potential ethical dilemmas, weighing legal dilemmas, questioning if more info is needed to solve the dilemma, brainstorming actions, analyzing steps, and choosing a course of action. The original method of CELIBATE was used for practicing clinicians but this article explores its application with research-related dilemmas. The dilemma occurred during a phone interview for a large epidemiological study. The participant shared information that suggested evidence of physical and mental elder abuse in a nursing home. The article goes through each step of CELIBATE and uses this model as a logical approach to solve the dilemma. The article also discusses ways in which the model could be improved for research related cases, specifically the order of the steps when evaluating the situation. Using the CELIBATE model is beneficial when thinking about and addressing an ethical dilemma because it assists individuals with examining various aspects of the situation and guiding the individual with making a reasonable decision.
