Hewes, RhD, CRC Dr. Hewes is an Assistant Professor of Rehabilitation and Disability Studies, and Coordinator of the Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counseling Graduate Program at Springfield College, Springfield, MA. Introduction The abuse of alcohol and other drugs continues to be an overwhelming societal problem affecting the lives of mil- lions. Evidence of this fact can be seen in the numerous alcohol- and other drug-related fatalities, accidents, and domestic disputes reported in the United States each year. In 1995, the total estimated cost of alcohol abuse and dependency in the United States alone was $150 billion.1 Additional personal costssuch as emotional and psycho- logical problems, loss of life due to suicide and violence, as well as disruption and trauma in the homecontinue to strain and impose complexities on the role of the substance abuse rehabilitation professional.' More specifically, within this complex environment, substance abuse counselors must learn to make difficult case management decisions regarding their client's well-being. Many rehabilitation professionals make such decisions when taking into account specific client-related information (e.g., physical, emotional, social, economical, family support, and coping skills). Ultimately, these decisions are ethical. Practitioners are often influenced by their own personal values, beliefs, and attitudes; the values held by their clients; the values of their professional organization or agency; and the general values held 13.y society. This lesson provides a focused discussion aimed at helping the reader recognize and resolve ethical dilemmas, as well as a step-by-step process designed to facilitate ethical decision making in rehabilitation counseling practice. After completing this lesson, the practitioner should be able to: Recognize the contextual forces that influence ethical practice by substance abuse professionals. client values, and organizational values play in ethical Explain the roles that personal values, decision making. Interpret the Code of Ethics for Rehabilitation Counselors as an important standard for guiding professional behavior. 1 0
