Scenario Justify a Report to Child Protective Services
Ethics Course Paper
Assume that you are a mental health clinician who is working in a mental health center as a mental health caseworker. You are working with a client that verbally admitted to you during a session that she was physically abusing her children by smacking them with objects and hitting them on the face and arms to the point where bruising was present.
At the conclusion of the session, you attempt to contact your supervisor to report the information gathered in the session and seek guidance on what should be done. However, your supervisor just left for an unannounced vacation earlier in the day. You then talk to the person who is covering for your supervisor, and that person verbally informs you to report the incident to Child Protective Services. Based on this directive, you elect to make the report.
When your supervisor returns from vacation, she determines that you incorrectly made a report to another agency, and that the supervisor who was covering for her was in error. Your supervisor then informs you that you overstepped your boundaries as a mental health caseworker. When you inform your supervisor that Child Protective Services substantiated your report, your supervisor informs you that you engaged in a breach of client confidentiality and places you on employment probation as a consequence for your actions.
Based on this scenario, you will need to craft a three-to-five-page double-spaced essay that answers each of the questions below. Make sure to carefully consider all of the aspects of this scenario before answering the following questions in your essay.
Question #1: How do the doctrines of Duty to Protect and Duty to Warn apply to this scenario?
Question #2: Does this scenario justify a report to Child Protective Services? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Question #3: What are your thoughts concerning supervisor competence in this scenario? In other words, was the supervisor correct or incorrect with respect to the sanction she imposed? Provide a logical argument to support your position.
Question #4: What could have been done differently in this scenario?
