Appalachian College of Pharmacy Healthcare Discussion

Review the attached scenario in Moodle then ask at least one other healthcare team member in a profession different from the one you are pursuing [could be a student (in this class or not) or a working professional] to review the scenario. Need at least a page response

Each of you should identify your individual top two ethical dilemmas or questions. A component of your write-up should describe the differences and similarities (if any) between what was selected. Additionally, your write-up should include discussion of the code of ethics for your future profession of interest, as well as the code of ethics for the profession (future or current) of the other individual.

If each of you had the opportunity to create an interprofessional team to help this patient, what professions would this team consist of?
