- hi, all.
- in my ethics class yesterday pm, we discussed the responsibility of a
- psychologist in terms of warning people in danger after info shared by
- a client. what are your opinions on this hypothetical example?
-
- your client informs you that s/he has tested hiv positive after an
- encounter with someone other than the married partner. the partner is
- unaware of the encounter and the test results. the client seeks help to
- deal with the info, but has indicated reluctance to inform the partner at
- this time. what to do?!
