SOWK 595 – Competency 9: Evaluate practice with Individuals, Families, Groups, Organizations, and Communities Figueroa Case Vignette Ethical dilemma and practice evaluationMs. Figueroa is a 28 year-old female who is developmentally disabled with an IQ of 75. She lives in a group home for developmentally disabled adults and has steady employment in the kitchen of a large hospital. She has held this job for six years and seems to be well-liked by her employer. She likes the routine of the job and does not have any interest in learning new skills. She is seeking your services because of her frustration with the group home administrators who have restricted her privileges. It has come to their attention that she is sexually active with a number of men (all of whom are also developmentally disabled) and is not using birth control because she wants to have a baby. The group home administrators do not believe she is capable of raising a child and question her ability to comprehend the decisions she is making. They are restricting her from being able to date until she is willing to use birth control. Ms. Figueroa sees this as a restriction of her rights and is extremely angry and upset. She enjoys the friendship with these men and is lonely and depressed at the thought of staying home all the time.
