The Carl Albert State College Physical Therapist Assistant Program recently hosted a professional development course in Ethics taught by Lynn Jeffries, PT, DPT, PhD, PCS, Director of Clinical Education at the University of Oklahoma’s Health Science Center.
The course was open to area professionals and addressed a multitude of topics pertaining to ethics in health care. The interactive workshop provided opportunities for attendees to explore the values, and the impact of those values on the provision of services, according to Jeffries.
Attendees focused on linking information to ethical decision making and building skills to appropriately identify ethical issues and strategically use their ‘voice’ to assess situations, develop a plan, and implement a directed plan of action, Jeffries said.
“This is a fantastic course for professionals,” said Jeri Hobday, CASC Physical Therapist Instructor and event organizer. “Lynn is a phenomenal facilitator and you are guaranteed to learn something new each time you hear her teach.”
