The Ethics Committee continues to serve APA’s members by providing guidance in response to questions from members about ethical issues they are trying to resolve. Recent opinion topics have included the following:
•
Ethical considerations for psychiatrists navigating novel business arrangements, such as serving simultaneously as the owner of a national telehealth company and a treating psychiatrist; see Opinion B.7.
•
Whether it is ethical to screen potential patients for suicidal thinking or past psychiatric experience prior to accepting them as patients; see Opinion N.37.
•
Advice for residents navigating whether and how to discuss firearm safety when relevant to a patient’s care; see Opinion R.6.
The full text of these and other guidances from the Ethics Committee appears in APA’s “Opinions of the Ethics Committee on the Principles of Medical Ethics With Annotations Especially Applicable to Psychiatry,”.
