Duty to Report

Laurencrest is legally bound to report to the Police or Children’s Aid Society (CAS) the following situations where a client discloses:

• Abuse to themselves, or to another (physical, sexual, emotional) and/or neglect, where the young person is under the age of 16
• Intention to hurt themselves (suicidal, or serious self-harm)
• Intention to hurt another person (homicidal, or violent behaviour)
• If the clinician has reasonable suspicion that the client may be in need of protection, where the young person is over the age of 16
• If the clinician has reasonable suspicion that the client has been abused, is currently being abused, or at risk of abuse.
  This includes:
  a) When domestic violence is reported and there is a child/children at home
  b) When the client discloses they have been abused as a child, and if there is a possibility of the abuser being a danger to the child/children

Confidentiality may be limited if subpoenaed by a Court of law.
