As stated by, Susan Manning, The NASW Code of Ethics is intended to serve as a guide to the everyday professional conduct of social workers. It is to ensure to social work professionals use make the adequate choices for clients through the proper ethical procedures. There are resources that I feel will reach a better understanding of the issue involving me being a tax professional and my potential client wanting to fraudulently commit improper tax preparations. Such resources, would involve other code of ethics displayed by the tax administrative office and the code or ethics that are set by each social work profession could be a helpful resource, too. There are specific principles and standards that can be used from the code such as; “commitment to clients, self-determination, inform of consent, privacy and confidentiality and so forth, as stated by, Susan Manning.
The code does adequately guide the service provider through values and ethical principles of initiative codes. Code of ethics set forth values, ethical principles, ethical standards, to which professional aspire, and by which their actions can be judged (Manning, 2003). These codes of ethics ensure that the service provider is guided the appropriate way. The code is adequate for intended use because it set for ethical values, ethical principle and standards that can be generally used. There are certain recommendations that I feel the NASW Code of Ethics should be amended by to help provide more guidance in circumstances by having more information involving the ethics pertaining to personal decision making and how it can help social work professionals learn how to make decisions without getting emotionally involved or attached.
