1. safeguard the client's right to privacy by judiciously protecting confidential information.
2. safeguard the public when health care and safety are affected by incompetent, unethical, or illegal practice of any person.
3. provide services with respect for human dignity and the uniqueness of the client.
4. ensure that the client receives the best possible care and to support the client's right to have health care consistent with the client's values and beliefs.
