PART 7
Referral and Confidentiality - When, Where and How to Refer Out
As a support parent, you are not expected to be a professional therapist / counselor. If something is said or occurs that concerns you, feel free to contact PHP.
The following may indicate that a family or individual needs additional professional assistance:
-
When a person expresses fears that they might hurt themselves or their child;
-
When a person describes actual verbal, physical or sexual abuse;
-
When a person speaks of a pattern of not eating or sleeping well or of uncontrollable emotional outbursts.
Trust your instincts, but always feel free to contact PHP if you feel uncomfortable about any situation.
