There are often ethical questions and decisions to be made. For example, your supervisor could ask you to provide a type of treatment that you do not feel is best for the patient but garners more money for the facility. What do you do? Take a chance of getting fired to stand up for your beliefs? Do the treatment just because it will make more money even though it is not best for the patient?
