hi peeps, bit of an odd question but can social workers get fired for sleeping with the person they are supposed to be assigned to? im sure there would be some question of ethical behaviour or something? im confused.

It's the worst of all cardinal rules that can be broken by a trained helping professional - never, ever, sleep with a client. It is unethical according to the orgs that govern their conduct and the company for which they work. If the company finds out, their supervisors have a duty to report that person to the licensing board. It could (should) end their career according to the professionals who train social workers, counselors, or therapists. What do you think?
