Abstract
Physical therapists are becoming increasingly aware of the number and complexity of ethical situations they must face in the daily practice of their profession. Increased skill in making ethically sound decisions begins by being able to recognize which components of a situation have a moral quality. The physical therapist can then act accordingly, using his personal wisdom and the Code of Ethics of the American Physical Therapy Association as guides.Keywords
