Synopsis:
Perhaps no other population exposes the clinician to more moral and legal dilemmas than clients with an HIV-positive diagnosis. What does the therapist do about the HIV positive patient who is having sex with unnamed partners and refuses to stop? What should be said in end-of-life decisions? What of the adolescent who is HIV positive but whose guardian does not wish the youth to be informed of his status? In this volume, Anderson and Barret provide a practical decision-making model. They begin with an overview of common ethical dilemmas, discuss the risk of legal malpractice, and offer guidance on reducing this risk. Then, ten diverse case studies are presented that highlight common ethical conflicts. Each case study includes comments from an ethicist and an attorney.
