STANDARD 2 Human service professionals obtain informed consent to provide services to clients at the beginning of the helping relationship. Clients should be informed that they may withdraw consent at any time except where denied by court order and should be able to ask questions before agreeing to the services. Clients who are unable to give consent should have those who are legally able to give consent for them review an informed consent statement and provide appropriate consent. Proverbs 11:3 – The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
– Professionals are supposed to be honest and sincere since the beginning of the relationship with the client. There is nothing hidden and helping professionals inform the client the risk and the cost of the services at front.
STANDARD 16 Human service professionals advocate for social justice and seek to eliminate oppression. They raise awareness of underserved population in their communities and with the legislative system. Psalm 9:9 – The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. – Like the Lord has advocated for me in the presence of the enemy and the power of sin, my role as a believer and professional is to advocate for those in need. The Lord reached me when I was oppressed by my own sin, now that I was set free by the blood of Jesus, I advocate for others. STANDARD 16 Human service professionals advocate for social justice and seek to eliminate oppression. They raise awareness of underserved population in their communities and with the legislative system. I1 Timothy 5:1-2 – Do not rebuke an older man but encourage him as you would a father, younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, in all purity. -Older people, is one of the many communities that are vulnerable and oppressed in so many ways by the society and the system, as a believer and human service professional; my responsibility is to advocate and help this community. STANDARD 10 Human service professionals provide services without discrimination or preference in regards to age, ethnicity, culture, race, ability, gender, language preference, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, nationality, or other historically oppressed groups. Romans 10:12 – For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him
– We are supposed to serve everyone no matter his or her color, race or nationality without discrimination or preference regards to age, gender or ethnicity.
STANDARD 1 Human service professionals recognize and build on client and community strengths. Romans 15:1-2 – We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
– When comparing this scripture with this ethical standard from the human service professionals, I find that they are similar because they challenge the professional and the believer to take the initiative and the role of a leader by building up individuals who are in need.
STANDARD 20 when human service professionals have a conflict with a colleague, they first seeks out the colleague in an attempt to manage the problem. If this effort fails, the professional then seeks the assistance of supervisors, consultants, or other professionals in efforts to address the conflict. Mathew 18:15-17- If your brother or sister sins- go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
– There is a way to manage conflict in professionals and believers, and these two: scriptures and Ethical Standard 20 helps us understand how to deal with conflict among colleagues. For example, if I see a colleague mistreating a client or doing something that is not ethical at work, it is my responsibility to take the initiative to confront him, if he does not listen, I would go to my supervisor and then the supervisor would know what to do from there. Same way, I would manage it if I had a conflict with a client.
