LP 13

1. What is the population of people you would prefer to not work with on a daily basis?
I don't think there really is a specific group that I do not want to work with. I think some may be harder than others, like child molesters, rapists, and murders.

2. When must a human services worker breach client confidentiality?
Confidentiality may be broken if there is suspected physical or sexual abuse, neglect, danger to self, court order or subpoena, an investigation into a death of a client, when a client needs a release of information, Patriot Act of 2001, or the duty to warn someone that the client poses a serious physical threat to another person.

3. Why is a dual relationship considered inappropriate?
It is considered inappropriate because it crosses a professional boundary. the purpose of a helper is to help the client, who may be vulnerable, which also means it may be easy to manipulate them and have the client help meet the helpers own needs.

4. Give three examples of dual relationships.
Asking the client to babysit the helpers kids, this happened to me while I was in counseling. A sexual relationship between the helper and client. A helper attending a social event thrown by the client.

5. What is countertransference?
A worker having feelings toward clients based on unresolved or unacknowledged feeling or issue.
