E-2A Ethical Challenges During and After a Pandemic Room 132A Track: Staff Training Sponsored by the ACA Ethics Committee This workshop will focus on the critical decisions correctional administrators and health care professionals make during a pandemic, where they are often blamed or considered wrong regardless of the decisions they make.
