Carl's Results Report
I should accurately document Carl’s results. According to the Code of Ethics of the National Association of Social Workers, under Social Workers’ Ethical Responsibilities in Practice Settings 3.04 Clients Records states, “Social Workers should take reasonable steps to ensure that documentation in records is accurate and reflects the services provided.” Additionally, documenting Carl’s results is directly relevant to the delivery of services. Carl is a veteran and he is receiving services at a treatment program I run, so I have no obligation to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. It’s my duty to document, but I cannot release his records without his valid consent.

    When using an electronic medical records database for documentation, confidentiality cannot be strictly enforced. This is because anyone who has access to this database will have access to Peter’s information. While having such a database is useful in terms of organization of documentation and having access to past treatment documents, Peter may not want his current treatment to remain private. In order to protect Peter’s confidentiality, I will allow Peter the option to upload his records to the electronic medical records database. If Peter agrees, then I will have him sign a medical release form. On the other hand if he disagrees, his hardcopy records will be kept in a locked…

    The Child, Family and Service Act (CFCSA) documentation policy requires child welfare agencies to maintain documentation about assessments, actions taken and services provided for each child and family within established procedures and timeframes (Smith & Donovan, 2003). Social workers may be pulled into complicated battles between divorcing parents, child custody, or child abuse charges, which summon detailed documentation for someone in authority to use in decision-making (Leon & Pepe, 2010). Specially, “professionals in the child welfare system understand that if it is not written down, it is as if it never happened” (Mallon, Hess, & ebrary, 2005, 2010, p. 6). The child welfare caseworkers can be subpoenaed to produce client records and…

    I agree with privacy and confidentiality especially when residing in small rural areas. Everyone knows everyone, and what is going on in someone’s session/case with the Social Worker should not be discussed with other individuals. I believe when confidentiality is maintained rapport is built between the Social Worker and the client, and the lines of communication remain open. If the Social Worker lives in fear that his/her information will spread through the community they will limit the lines of communication or terminate services.…
