BHIS 505 Core Professional Values Essay

PurposeThis unit provides an introduction to personal and professional values. As
we dive into analysis of ethical issues we will see how personal and
societal values inform the normative components of what we think ought to
happen in a given scenario. Before we do that, we will look at biases and
how they open the door for ethical compromises and dilemmas. Ethical
issues are not isolated or special cases; they occur day-to-day and they
impact us as people and professionals. The way we experience them may
vary on the scenario and our role therein. This unit will explore those
values which inform professionalism.

Purpose
We often speak and hear of professionalism in health care, but there are
large differences in how people describe and view what a professional is
and does. What does it mean to be a professional? Is there a difference
morally between how we act in or personal and professional lives, or is this
a false dichotomy? To begin, we will explore why personal values matter
and what it means to be a professional in light of those values.
Objectives
At the completion of this unit, students will be able to define and apply their
personal values in the context of professional practice.
