Professional Practice Series | Professional Boundaries

This 90-minute webinar builds direct service staff’s understanding of professional boundaries.

The session covers:

  • Why it’s important to have a consistent approach

  • How do policies and procedures provide consistent boundary guidelines

  • How can we be “friendly but not friends” with clients and recognise when this changes

  • How does cultural background influence professional relationships

  • What behaviours create risks and breaches in the workplace

  • What to do when issues arise

  • The importance of reporting and managing risks.

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, discuss their experiences and seek feedback from the facilitator and other group members.

They’ll also receive resources, tools and links to further information.
