Please review the following information carefully.
I understand that Blue Knot Foundation reserves the right to solely make decisions about all listings on the Blue Knot Referral Database, including but not limited to additions to, renewals and removals of listings from it. While Blue Knot Foundation will endeavor to provide a reason, it is under no legal or other obligation to do so, and any decision made is final.
I understand that Blue Knot Foundation will require me to renew each year which includes provision of updated practicing certificate/s.
I understand that a listing on the Blue Knot Referral Database does not guarantee how often my details may be provided to Blue Knot Helpline and Redress Support Service clients, nor how often I may be contacted with an enquiry about my services.
I understand that because of the nature of the service, Blue Knot counsellors have limited engagement with clients and are only able to undertake basic needs assessment and that it is solely my responsibility to assess the suitability of every referral made to me.
I confirm that I will advise Blue Knot Foundation in writing if:
Any of my practice contact details change
I resign from or fail to renew any of the professional memberships or affiliations included in this application
Any other practice-related matters change that are relevant to my listing on the Referral database.
I understand that Blue Knot Foundation is not able to investigate or determine any complaints made by a client against me and that clients will be referred by Blue Knot Foundation to the relevant complaints body for such purposes.
I confirm that I will advise Blue Knot Foundation in writing if:
Any professional body with which I am registered, or a relevant complaints body commences an investigation related to a client complaint
Any of the professional memberships or affiliations included in this application are cancelled and/or are suspended and/or my clinical practice is restricted by an accrediting body
I understand that Blue Knot Foundation will suspend the listing of a Health Professional from the Blue Knot Foundation Referral database under any of the above circumstances, and also if Blue Knot Foundation is notified in writing by another party that a complaint against a practitioner listed on the Referral Database has been submitted to a relevant complaints body. At such time as the Health Professional’s registration is fully reinstated and/or a complaint is finalised with no impact to their clinical registration/s, the Health Professional can accordingly advise the Blue Knot Referral Database Team on referraldatabase@blueknot.org.au and request their listing be reactivated on the Referral database.
