Ethics discussion and concepts requested from Tommyk or anyb

[rbaig]

Dear Tommy,
I have been a silent member of this forum for over 3 months now.I always read all your posts.I have benefitted a lot over the past 3 months and I can only honestly praise the great job u r doing for all of us.
I am giving my exam in the first week of May and I have one request.Please post some Hiyield behavioral Science and Ethics concepts.
Many books and prep materials deal with the Doctor-Patient confidentiality and instances when it is the duty if the Doctor to report to the authorities in case of a patient expressing/intention to kill somebody.I want to know, what should a Doctor do in case a patient confesses to having killed/Raped somebody already?.Should the Doctor report to the authorities?What happens to the Doctor-Patient relationship in these cases?
Once again I wish to express my gratitude as do so many others who visit this forum and benefit from it, not only in terms of the excellent concepts ,but also the motivation and Inspiration you give to so many of us.THANK YOU.

I continuously come back to this board because of one main reason: LOVE. I am all about LOVE. And this board seems to truly care for each other. I will try to post more Beh Sci.

Love you guys. Tommyk (A humble member of the family) I do really appreciate your prayers. They do help me a lot.
