Abstract
Therapists have always encountered ethical problems at work. However, these are becoming more important as changes in health care systems take place and patients' rights and autonomy become dominant in practice. An introduction is given to ethical theories and processes, and these are related to clinical issues identified during a series of research studies with occupational therapists and physiotherapists.Keywords
