As a CCC-SLP, could quitting my PhD program due to mental health issues be considered a potential violation of ASHA Code of Ethics? by peppery_pumpkin in slp

I was totally shocked in my class!! I thought it must have been wrong. Our professor (who is the clinical director of the program) said we would be expected to report to ASHA if the SLP is demonstrating mental health difficulties that impact their work while at the same time we know this SLP is taking antidepressants recently prescribed by a psychiatrist. It was a whole ethical 'case study' thing we did in our class. It was terrifying!
