Mental health professionals consider protecting confidentiality of information disclosed by patients to be one of their most important obligations. In some cases, it is evident that breaking confidentiality is legally required. Some circumstances, however, are unclear and pose ethical challenges for the professional involved.
The morning will focus on issues of confidentiality under the Illinois Mental Health and Disabilities Confidentiality Act. Topics to be covered include: confidentiality of records and communications, inspection of records, consents to disclosure of records, response to subpoenas, and proper procedures for record keeping.
The afternoon will address issues implicated in the mandated reporting obligations that are imposed on mental health professionals in Illinois by the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. Topics to be covered include: persons required to report, definitions of abuse and neglect, categories of classification in reports, disclosure to mandated reporting sources.
