    Study Notes

    • Examining ethical challenges is important to understand a profession's history.
    • Physical therapy has gone through three identity periods: self-identity, patient-focused identity, and societal identity.
    • During the self-identity period, ethical issues were mainly related to interactions with other professionals.
    • In the patient-focused identity period, ethical issues centered on the professional relationship with patients and patients' rights.
    • The current identity period encompasses concerns from the previous two and involves partnering with institutions and the community.
    • A study found that ethics literature in physical therapy conformed to these general time periods.
    • The trend toward partnerships may be partly due to legislation empowering patients and creating health maintenance organizations.
    • There has been a relative dearth of ethics publications in major health databases over the years.
    • The first code of ethics for physical therapy was published in 1935 by the APA.
    • Informed consent is now a routine component of medical care.
