Hi Shett,

See these:

Think about the obvious such as keeping conversations private, avoiding being overheard, not gossiping about individuals, not leaving personal information exposed, knowing who information can be shared with etc.

Think about situations such as suspected abuse where you may need to override an individual's wishes for you not to tell anyone.

Who would you go to in your setting if you needed advice?

Hope that helps

Aunty Sue
