Ethics importance within the process of decision making
Decision-making with respect to ethics refers to the process of choosing alternatives and
evaluating in a way that is consistent with principles of ethics. However, it is important to
recognize and remove unethical choices when making ethical decisions, and to select the best
ethical alternative (Hardy, 2016).
Following are the requirements in decision making of ethics

and is consistent with good citizenship. Such habits provide the basis for better decision making
by setting down the ground rules for our behavior.

potential impacts and risks
Consciousness: The understanding of rational action and the application of moral convictions to
daily actions Good decisions are both ethical and effective:
Effective decisions: The key to effective decision-making is to think about choices regarding
their ability to achieve our most important goals. This suggests that person need to understand
the difference between immediate and long term and short term goals.
Commitment: The desire to do the right thing no matter what does it cost (Armstrong, 2016).

professional.
Obtain informed consent from the patient for diagnostic tests or treatments, and respect the right
of the patient to deny treatment or procedures (Maragakis & O’Donohue, 2016).

Dignity and mental health care in practice
Respect people – As citizens and as fellow human beings. Do not label people due to their
illness or affiliation with any other group (Paillé et al., 2016).
Provide person-centered support and care: Place the individual at the center of care and their
needs, preferences and aspirations. A person-centered care ethos upholds the dignity of both
service- and staff-users.

Promote good practice in safeguarding: Focus on prevention and make abuse responses
proportionate and centered on the person.
Adopt a mental health recuperation strategy: In particular, help people preserve their
personal identity and self-respect, both of which are closely related to the idea of integrity.
Encourage good communication: That shows respect and upholds the integrity of an
individual. Good communication means allowing for contact between practitioners and service
users. Professionals may be trained in appropriate attitudes and communication skills, but users
of services may need communication support, particularly if they lack ability.
Solve discrimination: Public programmers, strategies and regulatory changes by citizen and
local community programs (Hardy, 2016).

treatment and allow people to state their needs and preferences before ability losses occur. Tools

consistent patient-centered care; a range of clinical resources; a safe and secure environment.
Addressing dignity at environmental risks: Include single sex wards, personal privacy and use
of bathroom facilities, clean facilities, ample space and sufficient levels of staff (Smit &
Scherman, 2016).
Question No. 02
Ethics Case Study
Upon reading this example, there are several things that come to mind that could be ethically,
morally, and criminally important. Ethics is currently a highly contentious issue. Hundreds of
questions concerning ethics can be identified and most of these cannot be answered specifically
including the definition of ethics. According to some reasons, the reason why ethics is highly
controversial today is that the conflict between ethics and profit has expanded; according to
some, ethics has remained in the background as compared with materiality (especially money);
and for some, the absence of ethics causes many social wounds besides moral corruption. The
technological advancement and the overburden of consequences deemed immoral behaviour may
be applied to those here. For example, while centuries ago unethical behaviour destroyed many
lives, today it is possible to annihilate a nation with an atom bomb. Whatever the reason, the
discussion about ethics is on the rise day by day. Theses and books on this topic have been
written; congresses have been arranged; and even units of ethics are established in many
organisations.
The reading clearly states that morality is not ethics, that is to say it is individualistic. For
someone else, something that's right may not be right for anyone else, and it certainly isn't. Yet

legally similar rights exist. Nonetheless, many negotiations were seen to have been short-lived
on this issue. Nevertheless, it is true that certain ethical rules are generally accepted even though
they are not universal. For show actions in medicine that do not follow Hippocrates ' authority
are not ethical or many of the behaviours that do not obey the laws are unethical. However the
role of culture in shaping ethical values is not denied. In particular, the profound difference
between East-West societies has made the legal rights and aspects of ethical discussions differ.
Suppose you have a fire at your home. While you're about to leave the building, you can see that
for ex, your mom and a man, you're lying on the floor. Which one would you bail out? You'll
rescue the one who according to utilitarianism would give the greatest value to society. For
example, if that person is a teacher in this case and your mom is just a housewife, then you
should disregard your mom's screams and save that person. There is however an essential loving
and caring relationship with your family, and your conscience will not let you get out of that
house without your mom.
As this example shows, it is the duty of individuals to exercise special care towards those people
with whom we deserve close relations. This principle is called "care ethics" The philosophy was
founded primarily by Carol Gilligan, the female ethicists. We argue that women address ethical
questions from a non-individualistic viewpoint on relationships and treatment.
The ethics of care emphasizes two moral demands: first, that "we each live in a network of
relationships and that we should protect and maintain the real and meaningful relationships that
we have with specific people". In addition, the first principle is reiterated by specifying that ' we
should practice special care for those with whom we are directly linked by discussing their
particular needs, values, desires and specific well-being from their own personal perspective and

by responding positively to these needs, values, desires and real well-being, of those particularly
vulnerable and reliant on our treatment.
Ethics of care is based on the belief that relationships are what makes one person. For them,
somebody is nothing. All that we encounter with some people from infancy to senility like our
mom, dad, friends, relatives etc. in our life cycles. They all help us; they are even our life's
cornerstones. That allows us to have an invaluable interest which should not be ignored.
Carefulness and justice are often at odds. Suppose you're a boss with just a couple like mom.
What would you do when you take one of these employees for a promotional order? Would you
suggest this to your friend, even if one of the other employees is more appropriate for that
position or would you critically neglect your friend? There's no simple answer to this question
though.
Although it seems to be noble and true, there are, without a doubt, many questions regarding the
ethics of the operation. It is thought, for example, that view can be degenerated and transformed
into unfair favouritism. For example, it can be used as an excuse to show that someone from
your race wants to be fair, which is not pure in reality. We argue also that when one tries to take
care of one's precious, he / she can engage in self-devotional acts. Health ethics proponents,
however, claim that, in this situation, individuals hold the balance.
Question No. 03
Analysis of Job 1 and Job 2: Domestic Violence workers and Public relation
Morals implies a lot of good measures that direct the activities of an individual, or how that
activity is led. Morals in advertising accordingly implies a lot of well-characterized standards

overseeing the manner in which the vender and purchaser convey. Morals is the Advertising
business' most significant element (Gordon et al., 2012).
To advertisers, the key territory of intrigue is to expand their business, pull in an ever increasing
number of clients and raise the interest for the product by demonstrating a well-designed, puffed
and bright ad. This shows their product is the best, with one of a kind characteristics, more
financially savvy and more proficient than the adversaries themselves (James et al., 2017).
Morals in Marketing for Domestic Violence Staff in the hostel's XYZ Group is straightforwardly
identified with advertising purposes and the embodiment of special.
Once in a while it is essential to overstate the ad to show the product's value. Along these lines
the advertising reason for existing was distinctly to illuminate ladies about the quality regarding
the product. Every woman clearly realizes this isn't essentially conceivable however the ad was
endorsed. That doesn't demonstrate the ad was unethical (Landon & Williams, 2019)
Morals relies upon what we accept, too. In the event that XYZ Company advertisers make the
ads on the conviction that clients will comprehend, persuade them to think, and afterward follow
up on their ads, this will lead to positive outcomes and the ad may not be viewed as unethical
(Heffron et al., 2018).
Equality Law 2010: demonstrates the discrimination relative to any of the characteristics shall
be protected including age, colour, disability, gender, race, belief and religion, and sex (Hansen
& Schnittka, 2018).
Diversity law: The success of any legal practice is based on its ability to comprehend and meet
its clients ' needs (Kane, 2018). Whether your clients are individuals or organizations, large or
small, there is a growing need for diversity about the legal profession.
