    This web resource outlines the Occupational Therapy Code of Ethics and Ethics Standards, as published in 2010, by the American Occupational Therapy Association. The OT Code of Ethics is a document outlining principles to uphold to maintain high standards of professionalism within the field of occupational therapy when confronted with ethical issues. The American Occupational Therapy Association defined seven principles that occupational therapy practitioners must uphold. These seven principles are beneficence, nonmaleficence, autonomy and confidentiality, social justice, procedural justice, veracity, and fidelity. This web resource defines each of these seven principles as outlined in the American Journal of Occupational Therapy, and explains how occupational therapy practitioners can uphold these principles in practice.

    This article discusses professionalism, and is a speech delivered diruing the 2010 Frances Rutherford Lecture in New Zealand. We as OT practitioners have the responsibility to promote and embrace the principles of our practice. We are responsible for how the public views our profession. Our actions should take root in the principle that taking part in occupations benefits the health and well-being of our patients. The author states that our professional responsibility is to always question and examine our role in healthcare, so that we can grow and practice in the most meaningful way.

    Atwal, A., & Caldwell, K. (2003). Ethics, occupational therapy and discharge planning: Four broken principles. Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, 50(4), 244-251. This article examines ethical dilemmas occupational therapists may face during discharge planning. Data was collected from ten occupational therapists to determine how well therapists are able to follow the ethical principles of autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Researchers found that the therapists in this study unintentionally breached these four principles. The authors speculate that a push for speedy discharges leaves many therapists facing ethical dilemmas. The authors offer solutions for eliminating breaches of each of the four ethical principles listed above. They suggest that utilizing a multidisciplinary approach may offer a means of discussing ethical concerns so that practitioners are better able to provide ethical care.

    OT's play a significant role in the discharge process and are often exposed to ethically challenging decision-making. This paper examines the moral basis of discharge planning, relating it to the four fundamental bio-ethical principles of respect for autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice. Using a case study design, data was collected from 10 occupational therapists and two elder care patients using the critical incident approach, as part of a wider study to determine their perceptions of discharge planning and multidisciplinary teamwork. Direct observation of interaction within multidisciplinary teams was also undertaken. This study suggests that occupational therapists are unintentionally breaching a set of principles laid out in the Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct. It is suggested that occupational therapists should further utilize multidisciplinary teams as a place where they can speak about their ethical concerns so that they are able to be effective client centered practitioners.

    This article discussed how professional judgement, ethics, EBP, and economic constraints are interrelated in OT practice. Each need to be considered during intervention planning, however, some therapists may find this difficulty. A literature review found that overall there is a lack of evidence supporting OT practice and that it can be difficult to integrate research findings into treatment. One question mentioned was should clients be quantified and reduced to variables as each person is unique?. Practitioners need to remember that research provides guidance for interventions, rather than step by step how-tos. It is up to the OT to use their judgment and experience to incorporate it.
