Discussion Questions

Read DeStefano in Module Seven.

1.  Should treatment agencies be allowed to require Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-Step Group attendance as part of their respective programs?

2.  If, according to DeStefano, requiring AA attendance is illegal, how exactly do treatment providers, Drug Courts, and other entities get away with it being a requirement?

This is just a discussion question so it needs no outside references than the ones I gave you.

Discussion Questions

Please read what has been posted in Module Seven before responding to these questions.

New York law allows law enforcement to remove firearms owned by patients reported to be likely to be dangerous. 

Answer the following:

1.  Is this a good practice, or is it a violation of the patient’s Civil Rights?

2.  Is it ethical that the clinician revealed information regarding the patient’s mental state to a law enforcement agency in the first place?

3.  The American Psychological Association has advocated allowing mental health workers to exercise professional judgment regarding the duty to warn and not to unnecessarily expand “dangerous patient” exceptions. Do you agree, or do you disagree, and why or why not?

This is a discussion question assignment so the only references needed are the ones I provided.
