CONFIDENTIALITY

Hi all.

This is the question I am having issues with. I have written a couple of answers that I think are correct. Please let me know if I am on the right track.

Cheers! :)

Are there situations where you feel you need to tell someone information that you have been told? Give 2 examples.

1. If a carer suspected a child was being abused, the Director and Child Protection would be notified.
2. If a child had a medical condition (eg: diabetes), all staff members that are in the same room as the child would have to be told and made aware of their action plan in case of a medical emergency.

Is these examples correct? Or are there any more common every day situations that I have forgotten?

Thanks again!

Hi Helana,

The two situations you have given are good and staff will have to be notified in both of these cases, like you said! :thumbup:
