And in addition the client may tell us themselves, information which we may deem risky to the clients or others lives. All information should remain confidential, and if the therapist breaches this, then they are likely to be sued. However if the life of the person is at risk or society as a whole then we may deem it necessary to breach confidentiality, however there is no consensus on what is deemed as harmful, and we would need to follow our governing body such as the BACP or Hypnotherapy society guidelines on how to deal with this. In most cases if you feel confidentiality has to be breached you should inform your client, as to the reasons why, this should be discussed in the initial consultation how and when you would do this, so you have an agreement before you start
From the way that I have interrupted that if the participates are forced into going through with the research it could have a very negative effect on the outcome and will cause data to be wrongfully interrupted. The informed consent is necessary for ethical research because it outlines what the researchers are doing and what is expected of the participates. It states what risks that are involved and they are able to back out at any time they wish if they are in fear or just do not want to help out anymore. After they are done with the study the participates need to be debriefed where if they are taking a medication that is being researched they are informed if they received the actual drug or a placebo, also at this time they are given an explanation of the study and the procedures that were involved. I will share with the class that I had my son involved in a drug study for ADHD about 9 years ago; it was for the patch that is offered now.
If I share their personal information with others who have no need or right to know I risk breaking their trust in me. Individuals also need to know that there are secure systems and procedures operating in the my setting to protect confidential information. Safety - Some information must be kept confidential for safety reasons. For example, a child’s wellbeing might be in danger if an estranged parent who has been refused contact because of previous abuse finds out where he or she is now living, through a breach in confidentiality. The Law - It is a legal requirement for organisations to manage and safeguard personal information correctly.
Families may be unwilling to highlight their needs as they are from a culture that believes all problems must be dealt with internally (i.e. within the family unit) and where any involvement from external agencies is seen as a breach of their privacy. Families can often feel as though their lives are being scrutinised and that they are being judged as failing because they need assistance for their child and family. It is important that the family is fully aware of the legal process they are about to enter into and that each step is clearly explained, thus avoiding any surprises and enabling an open line of communication. We have a strict policy within our setting which states that all confidential information is stored in a locked filing cabinet in a locked room with only senior members of staff having access to the key.
In a case of a serious incident the CQC would be notified along with GP, advocate and other professionals involved in the individuals care. 5) The least restrictive interventions should always be used in order to not harm the individual and to not increase their aggression or agitation if this is the case. Over use of restrictive interventions may also result in a violation of the individual’s rights and dignity. The use of the least restrictive interventions helps to ensure the safety of the individual as well as the dignity and rights of the individual. Using ‘heavy handed’ interventions may result in the situation escalating and the individual feeling more irate.
Some of the things a person may experience will affect how they treat other people. A prime example would be The Catcher in the Rye’s Holden Caulfield. “ Holden respond[s] to inner rather than out pressures; ‘he is a victim not so much of society as of his own spiritual illness’ which forbids him from discarding any of his experiences and condemns him to carry the burden of indiscriminate remembrance” (Ohmann 24). This suggests that people can become victims of their experiences. Holden is trapped by the memory of his mind which in turn makes him conduct unfair judgments on others that he actually sees in himself.
In our society today, our everyday lives are governed by a set of laws and rules inwhich we view as the correct way to act. Our daily lives are based on this, and even the effect how we act around one and other. However, those who step away from these 'Norms' are viewed as weird, strange and different by the conforming majority. These individuals who break away from these social nomalities risk being prosecuted, but why do they do this? What compels them to resist these pressures and follow there own independant path?
Being a read/write learner means that you prefer written material, you rather read than listen. If you are a visual learner, you learn better by seeing pictures and diagrams. Some learn best by listening, they are called auditory learners. Others learn by actually touching and working out things, being very hands-on, they are referred to as kinesthetic learners. References Feldman, R. S. (2011).
Being sexually harassed can make a lot of people feel powerless, but there laws in place protecting our right to a safe, non-hostile workplace. In the case of the hostile workplace, one might not be directly harassed, but if the language and attitudes of one's coworkers makes one feel marginalized, threatened, or objectified, it is important that one say something, if not directly to the offending party, then to a supervisor. In more direct cases, it is important that one report to their immediate supervisor about the incident. Many companies have specific procedures for such incidents, and those procedures are best followed to the letter. Document all complaints.
Maintaining confidentiality It is important that clients know they can confide information in their carers. They should not feel like you will discuss their information with anyone else. As a carer you must not discuss anything a client tells you or anything to do with the clients’ personal business. However, there are times when information provided by a client would need to be shared. For example, if a client is being physically abused by her husband at home, and she tells her carer about this situation, the carer will need to share this information with other organisations because the clients’ health and well being is in danger.
