Webinar: Will I get in trouble? Ethics in assistive technology prescription

Hosted by Medical Aids Subsidy Scheme

Assistive technology prescribers juggle growing demands, increasingly complex caseloads, and progressively more complicated technologies. Faced with these circumstances, we still need to maintain our ethics and integrity. Through examples such as fraudulent forms, prescription of powered mobility for persons with cognitive impairment, and kickbacks, we explore ethical principles such as professional conduct, protection of the public, dignity of risk, and least harm. Learn practical strategies to protect your integrity.
