Effective understanding and application of professional and personal boundaries underpin all work in the social care sector. The long term effectiveness of the organisation rests entirely on the personal and professional boundaries of the staff.
Most of the staff will have some understanding of the issues but often people lack a coherent and comprehensive look at the issue. Good boundaries also require good teamwork, an issue that is highlighted within our training sessions.
Boundaries are not just the rules that we enforce with clients but are rooted in an understanding of self and how we interact with others. Our advanced boundaries training takes time to get your staff to examine their own personality types and how this impacts on their work.
To sample some of our work and to check your own boundaries, try our self test multiple choice Professional Boundaries Quiz.
