Which of the following is NOT a violation of confidentiality rules?

  1. Informing the teacher about the abuse to help the child

  2. Giving a neighbor the names of the foster child's siblings to invite them to a party

  3. Consulting with the Children's Legal Services (CLS) attorney who is preparing the case

  4. Advising day care staff that child is HIV positive so other children are protected

The correct answer is: Consulting with the Children's Legal Services (CLS) attorney who is preparing the case

Consulting with the Children's Legal Services (CLS) attorney who is preparing the case is not a violation of confidentiality rules because the attorney is also legally bound to maintain confidentiality. All of the other options involve disclosing sensitive information to individuals who are not authorized to have that information. Informing the teacher about abuse, giving names to a neighbor, and advising daycare staff of a child's HIV positive status all violate confidentiality rules and could have serious consequences. In these situations, it is important to only share information with those who have a legitimate need to know in order to protect the child and uphold confidentiality.
