Professional Ethics: A Fundamental Responsibility

The fundamental responsibility of diagnostic and therapeutic professionals is to manage the prescribed diagnostic and therapeutic services for patients in an effort to improve the patients’ health.

Further, members have professional obligations to work collaboratively with colleagues and other health care professionals to advance the art and science of the services the profession as a whole provides.

Professionals of the Alberta College of Medical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technologists abide by and promote the primary principles for ethical practice as described within the key principles of the Code of Ethics.

A violation of a registrant’s Code of Ethics could lead to a complaint of unprofessional conduct.
