在諮商與助人專業領域服務之專業人員皆應遵守專業倫理守則,因倫理被認為是專業人員所需具備的專業知能與能力,以提供更完善的服務給個案,並確保案主的福祉。除了專業人員之外,接受培訓的專業人員亦應從課程中,藉由多元的管道來培養其對專業倫理的知識、敏感度、推理能力、以及決策技巧等,才能使接受培訓的學生在進入專業領域之後,遇到倫理兩難議題時知道應如何處理與應對,在保護案主的同時也保全專業的形象以及專業人員。在專業仍重視倫理議題的情況下,臺灣復健諮商領域在專業服務發展數十年後才建置專業倫理守則,提供職業重建專業人員參考,相較於諮商領域發展較晚,希冀能在未來無論是對於守則的修訂或是倫理課程的規劃都能有進一步發展,讓這個專業領域更為完善。
In counseling and other helping professions, practitioners should follow the ethical codes when delivering services. Ethics is considered to be the required professional knowledge and competence in the helping profession, in order to offer better services to the clients and ensure their welfare. In addition to practitioners, professionals in training should alsoobtain knowledge, sensitivity, reasoning skills, and decision-making skills regarding ethics through various channels in the training program. Therefore, these future professionals will be prepared to face and handle ethical dilemmas when entering the field. The ethical behavior is not only to protect the clients, but also to protect the profession as well as the service providers. With the primacy that the rehabilitation counseling profession in Taiwan acknowledges the importance of ethics in practice, the ethical codes for vocational rehabilitation practitioners was established after decades of the profession. Considering the long term development of the profession, it is hoping the revision of the ethical codes and the planning of ethics education can be addressed and discussed within the profession in the future.
