This media can include a full-length written feature story, a video interview, a series of short videos, a mix of photos, and/or any other creative applications to best illustrate your story and achieve the goals of the ambassador campaign.

What Clients Need to Know About Information Sharing
In order to develop a care plan and provide your child and family with the services that best meet your needs, staff at Lansdowne Children’s Centre will ask for information about your child and family.
With Your Consent This Information is Shared
-
Only with those professionals and organizations serving your child and family
-
Through verbal and written communication, and in an electronic record
The electronic health record lets Lansdowne Children’s Centre staff working with your child and family view and write down information about your child in a secure and confidential manner. It also means that you don’t have to repeat information as often, and it lets your team build on past progress and experience.
Community partners included in your consent are listed on the “Consent for Information Sharing and Collection of Personal Information” form. You can say if you do not want to share certain information or if you do not want to share with certain people.
Your child’s electronic record is secure and protected.
This web‐based shared electronic record uses the same technology that is used for online banking. In order for members of your child’s team to use your child’s electronic record, they must:
-
Be authorized by Lansdowne to access your child’s password‐protected record
-
Attend training on the electronic record and related privacy policies and guidelines
-
Sign a confidentiality agreement
