Understanding ethical decision-making in the context of “end of life” and other health care situations is examined using a model, which describes the process of decision-making and the influences of resources, knowledge, values, responsibility and the law. Social Work case examples from various health care settings illustrate the process and influences, giving particular attention to end of life issues. Social Work practice challenges, guidelines and suggestions are outlined in the article. The role of the social worker and the influences of the social workers’ own values, knowledge and beliefs, such as the client-centered approach and empowerment, are seen as important components of the process and influences.

Abstract Music therapists in end-of-life care settings are commonly requested by patients to self-disclose their spiritual beliefs and to participate in explicit spiritual practices or rituals. Four potential courses of action available to music therapists will be framed using an integrative ethical decision-making model in context of the American Music Therapy Association Code of Ethics. Stakeholdership, moderating obligations, and ethical values are concepts integral to this examination, providing music therapists dynamic constructs to continuously utilize when determining effective, culturally responsive ethical decisions. Specific ethical principles and codes are provided for additional points of reference, and recommendations are provided to guide future explorations into the ethical dimensions of music therapy and spirituality.
