Scenario 1
You are a supervisor (MSW) in a mental health program which has a strict policy against transporting clients. As you are driving to work you see a woman who you know is one of your counselor’s clients, walking down the road. You assume she is walking to your office as she has at least 3 appointments a week and you have seen her at your office. It has begun to rain hard and the office is at least a mile away.
- Is it illegal to stop and provide a ride to this client?
- Identify any NASW Code that would support or challenge you providing this client a ride
