Joseph
Personal Information about Joseph
Date of Birth: 31/10/04
Full Name: Joseph Timothy Drake
Address: 13 Short St, Parker
Languages spoken: Chinese and English
Nationality: Chinese
Other children: Only child
Mother: Lis’s (09) 7476 9435
Partner: Jake (no number provided)
Joseph is 5 years old and comes to your centre every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. He lives with his mother Lis. You have noticed that Joseph often seems to take the role of caregiver to his mother, who has a series of failed relationships and is currently seeing Jake. Jake has never come into the service. Lis has become particularly close to one of the staff and will often break down and inform the staff member of the fights she has with her partner. Last week, one of the staff overheard Lis recount the events of the previous weekend, when she hadn’t had left the key under the door mat. As a result, her boyfriend broke the front door and came in yelling at Lis. Joseph was still up with her at this time, and Lis continued to say that she was worried Joseph had seen her get hit several times by Jake. Lis appears increasingly concerned that he might do something to Joseph as he keeps threatening her and arriving late at night after drinking. It has been observed that Joseph does not interact with other children as much as he used to and will often lash out if another child approaches his play area.
Just recently, Joseph had come in and sat in the corner of the room, facing the wall for over an hour. Staff tried to approach him however he would lash out towards them then return to the corner. His mother mentioned to staff that he was very upset as Jake had come home late again and there had been some trouble. Later in the morning you were able to talk to Joseph and realised that he had wet himself. In the process of assisting Joseph to get changed, a large purple impact bruise was observed on the right hand side of his back. Joseph said nothing and made no eye contact with you during this time.
