Guest guest Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Okay, so I listened to the webinar on the thing that used to be called the code of ethics, and now I can't think of the new term. Anyhow, if I understood correctly, the reason IBCLCs cannot be " forced " to abide by the Code as part of our professional ethics, is because there is no legal way to enforce it in a country where the code is merely a suggestion. I am a bit puzzled, because I am a member of several organizations with codes of conduct/ethics, and it never occurred to me that all of those points had to be legislated at either a state or national level in order to be valid parts of a code of ethics. Did anyone else listen today? Other thoughts?This does not sit well with me, but I'm not very articulate on the topic.Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
