Recording policy — Key information
The primary role of a social worker is to work with and support whānau or family to protect and care for their tamariki (children and young people). Recording is a vital element of good social work practice – timely recording facilitates analysis and reflection, supports supervision, is a means by which social workers can be accountable for their actions and decision making, and demonstrates their integrity as a social worker.
