Answer:

Treatment facility staff can be guilty of false imprisonment if the patient is arrested at the facility without the need for treatment.

Explanation:

False arrest is considered a very serious crime, and is characterized by a situation where someone is prevented (by someone else) from leaving or walking in a certain area, ie the person is detained. However, it is important to remember that not every detention can be accused of false imprisonment, in some cases the law allows a person to be detained against his will. Facility staff can be convicted of false imprisonment if the patient being prevented from leaving does not need treatment, but if the patient needs treatment it is irresponsible for the facility to let him out.

Project: Ethics and morals
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

ETHICS :

Ethics or moral philosophy is a branch of philosophy that "involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior".The field of ethics, along with aesthetics, concerns matters of value, and thus comprises the branch of philosophy called axiology.

Ethics seeks to resolve questions of human morality by defining concepts such as good and evil, right and wrong, virtue and vice, justice and crime. As a field of intellectual inquiry, moral philosophy also is related to the fields of moral psychology, descriptive ethics, and value theory.

Three major areas of study within ethics recognized today are:

1. Meta-ethics, concerning the theoretical meaning and reference of moral propositions, and how their truth values (if any) can be determined

2. Normative ethics, concerning the practical means of determining a moral course of action

3. Applied ethics, concerning what a person is obligated (or permitted) to do in a specific situation or a particular domain of action.

MORALS :

A moral (from Latin morālis) is a message that is conveyed or a lesson to be learned from a story or event. The moral may be left to the hearer, reader, or viewer to determine for themselves, or may be explicitly encapsulated in a maxim. A moral is a lesson in a story or in real life.
