In this course, we explore the concept of boundaries in healthcare and the complications that stem from dual relationships. We introduce several readings from experts in the field and include a discussion exploring the positive and negative aspects of dual relationships. We also discuss how certain circumstances, specifically rural and small community practices, lead to inevitable dual relationships. There is a focus on the ethical components of managing dual relationships and discuss the management of those relationships through a question-based framework. To further the students’ understanding, we will explore all aspects through a series of cases studies. The Codes of Conduct for CCM, CRC, and CDMS are included in relation to this ethical dilemma and the responsibility of the healthcare provider.
