Colorado Mental Health Jurisprudence Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

According to the mandatory disclosure, in what case might legal confidentiality of client information not be maintained?

If disclosed to family members

Unlike family members who may have a personal connection to the client and may accidentally or intentionally share their information, healthcare providers and educational settings are held to professional standards and regulations to maintain legal confidentiality of client information. While there are legal exceptions that may warrant the disclosure of confidential information to certain authorities, this is done with the client's consent or as required by law. Sharing confidential information with family members without the client's permission would go against the principles of maintaining privacy and trust in the client-provider relationship.
