APS personnel shall not take unfair advantage of their relationship with the client in a way that would exploit the client to advance the personal, religious, political or business interests of the APS personnel. To that end, APS personnel shall not engage in dual or multiple relationships with clients or former clients. In instances when a dual role may be unavoidable, it shall be the responsibility of the APS staff member to report the real or potential dual role to the staff member's supervisor. The National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics defines dual roles as existing whenever social workers relate to clients in more than one relationship, whether professional, social, or business.
