Social services

[Vaio1992]

I need an advice please dont bash my post. had an argument with my husband and he pushed me . I was obviously very angry and i told it to my counsellor and gp. so the gp involved Social services which i didnt want bcus it was a heatedup argument. i have a 6 month old. somehow SW came to house and investigated. i had no idea that she gained the info from counsellor (which i thought was confidential) . i showed her that nothing was recent it was all in past she listened and showed me the referral that counsellor said that. And i got paniced. My Husband is not abusive and we are already giving our best to create healthy envoirnment for our child.I explained this to SW. What do you think they are going to do? i love my family and i dont want to be torn apart , neither my hudband does.

They have a duty to protect your child.
You have a duty to protect your child.
They have visited and had a chat. They will make a note on file and probably leave it at that. Did the SW say they felt there was an ongoing concern?

All services have a duty to report safeguarding concerns which over rides confidentiality. Although you have said it was once and in the past many people say this but its the tip of an iceberg so it has to be reported just in case. Keep going as you are if there are no on going concerns nothing will happen. They may be able to offer support for whatever you are having counselling for. Social service prime am is to support families not pull them apart.

DV with a pregnant woman or child under 1 in the house is a mandatory SS referral I'm afraid. If there's nothing ongoing it'll just be filed, but could you be minimising this?

You could contact the social worker who visited and ask them what will happen next. If you can't get hold of them directly, ring the office and ask to speak to someone else in their team.
Likelihood is that this incident will be recorded and no further action taken if it's a one-off, but checking with the SW should put your mind at rest.
