Developing an ethics review process in a social service agency

Abstract

Ethics review committees have become important mechanisms for ethical decision making in the field of health care and have begun to emerge in social work settings. This article reviews the health care experience and considers its implications for the development of processes for ethics reflection and decision making in social service agencies. The design of explicit models for ethics review in social work should contribute to the integrity of the profession and its accountability to the community.
