What are the guidelines for setting boundaries? Essay - ANSWERSThere are many important guidelines a
human service professional must follow in order to set boundaries with clients since there can be a
conflict of interest and loss of objectivity. Especially when a human service worker is operating in
multiple roles so it is beneficial to set boundaries from the outset. You can provide an informed consent
documentation that states your policies pertaining to professional or business relationships. Informed
consent and discussion of unforeseen problems and conflicts need to be an ongoing process. Another
thing you can do is talk to the client and discuss what you expect from them and what they can expect
from you. Another way to help set boundaries is to consult with a colleague especially if you are playing
more than one role with the client. If working in multiple relations becomes more difficult it is better to
work under supervision for the safety of the worker and client. Remember also to document all dual
relationships with your client. If all those options are exhausted then it is best to refer the client to
another professional.
