  This study conducted an analysis of 60 interviews with family caregivers for community-based elderly persons. It suggests that ethical dilemmas are important to organizing guidelines for family caregiving. This study explores this idea as it relates to the practice of occupational therapy with older adults and their families. This article describes major themes relating to ethical dilemmas in family caregiving as derived from interview data. This study concludes that in the context of the family caregiver and the occupational therapist, the caregiver's ordinary ethics and the therapist's professional code of ethics are both distinctive and unified. Occupational therapists should seek understanding of their clients' ethical beliefs in order to maximize the potential for a therapeutic relationship built on mutual understanding and partnership
