Social workers frequently encounter complex ethical challenges involving boundaries and dual relationships. Examples include navigating relationships with clients when practitioners live and work in small or rural communities; managing practitioner self-disclosure; managing friendships and social contact with current and former clients; managing favors, gifts, and invitations; hiring of former clients; and managing online and social networking relationships and communications, among others. Using extensive case material, Dr. Frederic Reamer will acquaint participants with a typology of boundary issues and dual relationships. Participants will learn how to identify and respond constructively to complex boundary issues, protect clients, prevent professional malpractice, and avoid licensing board complaints. Key topics will include the nature of boundary issues, types of dual relationships, and practical risk-management strategies. Dr. Reamer will review and apply key social work ethics standards, statutes, and regulations.

Learning Objectives:

Identify ethics and risk management issues related to professional boundaries and dual relationships in social work.
Apply relevant ethics standards to manage boundary issues and dual relationships that arise in social work.
Use protocols designed to protect clients and help prevent litigation and ethics complaints.
