Q----what is meant by upholding confidentiality?

My Ans... Caring for Our Children, National Health and Safety
Performance Standards (2002) recommends that programs
create and abide by a written policy which
describes how confidential information should be
documented, stored and handled. All staff should
be familiar with this policy, which should cover all
of the specific types of confidential information kept
at the program site. Below are some examples of
how a program can protect confidential information
while providing quality care.

Q---what is the legislation and act that applies to child protection in NSW?

My A- The Children and Young Persons (Care and Protection) Act 1998 (the Act) establishes the legislative framework governing child wellbeing and providing child protection and out-of-home care services in NSW.

This section provides a summary of the legislative framework that supports child protection and child wellbeing in NSW, including the Keep Them Safe reforms. The Keep Them Safe legislation fact sheet provides a helpful overview of the recent legislative changes.

Q---what can we do if we are unsure of our job roles or responsibilities?

my A---Confusion regarding job roles can be a major source of workplace stress and conflict. It can also result in poor service delivery. It is important that you know your job responsibilities, work within your position specifications and clarify work instructions where necessary.

Seek regular support and supervision from your supervisor through supervisory sessions and bring any situations to the attention of your team leader.

Seek advice from work colleagues through consultation and staff meetings.

Look to professional guidelines for scope of practice in other settings.

Seek to have your position description clarified and/or have it include reference to professional standards or legislative provisions.

Seek to have your competencies assessed and/or recognised.

Ensure that all major work activities are accurately documented/recorded.

Consult with representatives from groups such as unions and professional bodies regarding the appropriateness of job role.
