Abstract

Gatekeeping decisions frequently involve ethical dilemmas. Therefore, trauma-informed decision-making is required for each step of the gatekeeping process when addressing trainees demonstrating problems of professional competence (PPC). This chapter outlines an ethical decision-making model for gatekeeping that includes six phases of action: (a) preparing, (b) naming, (c) engaging, (d) assessing, (e) implementing, and (f) evaluating. Additionally, this model infuses SAMHSA's six key principles of trauma-informed care, along with multicultural and personal discernment considerations throughout.
