Confidentiality Awareness
Online course
CareCPD accredited
Included with Nest Learn
Confidentiality in a children's home is tested constantly — in handovers, on social media, and every time a professional asks for information about a child. This course covers what you can share, with whom and on what basis, applying GDPR and the seven golden rules for information sharing to real residential care situations.
It also addresses professional online conduct and the boundaries that protect both the children and your own position.
