Week 4 Journal
Craft a brief response to the following questions:
What is your experience with conflicts between client/patient care needs and the personal values and beliefs of others? (If you’ve not had experience with clients or patients, you can think about any other workplace-based experience in which you had to consider the needs of the people you were serving with the personal values and beliefs of others. And if you still can’t think of an example, then cite one from any of the readings.)
How might you determine whether certain actions or practices are compatible with your basic beliefs and values?
Would you accept a position at an institution whose values are contrary to your own? Why or why not? And most importantly, how might you make this decision? (i.e. What questions would you ask yourself and the institution? What considerations would you need to explore?)
Your response should be at least 300 words – and you’re welcome to write more, of course!
