When can conduct be considered unethical according to the code?

  1. When there is financial damage to the patient

  2. Only when there is physical injury to the patient

  3. Regardless of actual injury to the patient

  4. Only if reported by a healthcare practitioner

The correct answer is: Regardless of actual injury to the patient

Conduct can be considered unethical according to the code regardless of actual injury to the patient. This means that even if there is no physical or financial harm to the patient, the conduct can still be deemed unethical. Options A and B are incorrect because they limit the definition of unethical conduct to only instances where there is financial damage or physical injury to the patient. Option D is also incorrect as it implies that unethical conduct can only be recognized if it is reported by a healthcare practitioner. However, any violation of the ethical code should be addressed and rectified, regardless of whether or not it is reported by a healthcare practitioner.
