The CEO requested that you design a short in-service training session for employees on the importance of professional ethics and liability protections on your first day in the position.
You must create an information sheet outlining the similarities and differences between laws and ethics, as well as the impact of unethical practices on healthcare. An information sheet provides concise and clear information on the subject at hand. An information sheet may contain bullet points; however, because employees will be expected to know and understand the material thoroughly, your information sheet should be more detailed and include supporting evidence, such as a reference list.
1. The information sheet should provide enough information for your employees to understand the differences and similarities between ethics and laws, the impact of unethical practices on healthcare, and the significance of professional ethics.
2. Use audience-appropriate language and tone in your information sheet. Remember, you’re writing this for your coworkers, but the CEO and the Board of Directors may attend.
