​Virtual (Zoom)

PRESENTATION:  A new generation of healthcare realities challenge case management’s ethical principles of autonomy, beneficence, fidelity, justice, and nonmaleficence:
​

• Aligning with diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice imperatives
• Distinguishing between patient capacity versus incapacity, an
• Prioritizing workforce mental health and manifesting moral distress.

Each of these situations mandate proactive scrutiny by the workforce. They also cause case managers to carefully juggle the balls of personal, clinical, and organizational ethics. As a result, the questions beckon: What is a case manager’s ethical duty when their personal values conflict with patient autonomy? What happens when employer mandates are counter to the industry’s established resources of guidance? Where should a case manager’s ethical compass point? Engage in an educational experience that empowers case managers and provides strategic guidance to firmly set their ethical practice trajectory.

Behavioral Objectives:
1.   Identify the main elements of the Inclusive Case Management model.
2.  Define the 5 Cs of Care Considerations paradigm.
3.  Apply the 4 Rs Moral Distress strategy.
4.  Apply professional case management’s established resources of ethical guidance (e.g., regulations, standards of practice, ethical codes)
