What is a fiduciary relationship based on?

  1. Trust and confidence

  2. Service plan objectives

  3. Case progress documentation

  4. State guidelines

The correct answer is: Trust and confidence

A fiduciary relationship is based on trust and confidence. In the context of child welfare services, a fiduciary relationship means that the social worker or child welfare employee is entrusted with the well-being and best interests of the child and must act in their best interests at all times. This relationship is built on trust and requires the professional to prioritize the needs of the child above all else. The other options (B, C, D) are not directly related to the foundational principle of trust and confidence that underlies a fiduciary relationship.
