Course Information
Description:
Social workers often feel comfortable discussing religion and spirituality with bereaved adults during the initial assessment phase; however, many report limited knowledge of “how” to ethically integrate the domain across therapeutic processes. Drawing on the NASW Code of Ethics, this interactive, case-based course describes empirically-based methods and best practices for integrating bereaved adults’ religious and spiritual beliefs and values across treatment. Forester-Miller and Davis’ Seven-Step Model for ethical decision-making, with particular attention to professional self-awareness as a foundation for ethical competence. Participants will apply core ethical principles, best practices, and the Seven-Step Model to practice utilizing case study analyses.
Learning Objectives:
1. Discuss the relevance of engaging bereaved adults’ religion/spiritual worldviews across therapeutic processes to holistic assessment and treatment.
2. Describe practical methods for integrating bereaved adults’ religion/spiritual beliefs and values across therapeutic processes.
3. Apply Forester-Miller and Davis’ Seven-Step Model for ethical decision-making, the Code of Ethics guidelines, and best practice methods of integrating the religion/spiritual domain across therapeutic processes.
