Confidentiality and CAPS

Question

Does everything I tell my provider remain confidential?

Answer

 

Yes, information you share during a counseling or case management visit is confidential. The only exceptions to this privacy include:

  • If we think you are at imminent risk of harm to yourself or another person
  • When court ordered
  • When abuse or neglect of children or vulnerable adults is involved
  • If we become aware of inappropriate chemical abuse while you are pregnant
  • With a signed release from you
