    Running Head: ARTICLE ANALYSIS 1

    This article analyzes a study that compared the impacts of accessible versus dominant models of child protection service delivery on front-line helping relationships. The study found that accessible sites sought to expand partnerships with local organizations and communities, and that more satisfactory service delivery experiences could reduce turnover among front-line workers. However, the study had limitations in that it only examined sites in Ontario and small programs. Ethically, participants were informed and willing, and confidentiality was maintained. The implications are that improving community involvement and reducing fear of services could enhance child welfare outcomes. A key lesson is that cooperative relationships can support meaningful family connections while still prioritizing child safety.

    Analysis of Methods

    This article presents various findings from an extensive investigation that compares the
    impacts of helping relationships of identifying front-line child protection service providers in
    dominant and accessible service delivery sites (Cameron et al 2012). The findings showed that
    accessible sites wanted to expand service partnerships with local service organizations and
    community associations. The study also showed that more satisfactory service delivery
    experiences might minimize income in front-line child protection jobs. Basically, data analysis
    and data collection in this study was effectively done because it comprised data from diverse
    schools, neighborhoods and child protection service delivery sites. However, this study only
    focused on a limited number of child welfare settings in Ontario and moderately small size of the
    available programs. The study also did not strongly rule against explanations for the identified
    differences other than the accessible service delivery approaches. In this case, the study did not
    provide adequate information to validate their conclusion, and thus the information cannot be
    relied so much.
    Ethical Issues
    A study cannot deliver proper results unless proper ethical standards have been upheld.
    Ethical issues implies a study that upholds the moral obligation of acting in a way that is in
    agreement with professional values. One of the possible ethical issues that might have arisen in
    the process of conducting this research is telling the potential study participants about all features
    of the study that might practically influence their decision to provide necessary information
    (McLaughlin, 2012). Every party involved in a study must know the need for participating,
    consequences of the study and must agree to participate in the study. Probable study subjects
    should be provided with sufficient information about the study to determine any likely risks as

    well as benefits. Social work study should never hurt the people being studied, irrespective of
    whether they volunteer for the study. Additionally, the study should maintain confidentiality and
    privacy by not sharing the information without the consent of the participant. In this particular
    study, the researchers ethical decisions were all justified because the participants were willing to
    participate, and hence they were not forced to provide the required information.
    Social Work Implications
    The research presented in this particular article reveals a compelling relationship between
    the extent of childhood privilege and impacts of accessible service delivery on front-line helping
    relationships in child welfare. In many settings, as the research indicates, parents and children
    are usually resistant and fearful to involvement with child protection agencies (Cameron et al
    2012). Service suppliers are greatly controlled by competing burdens on their time. This means
    that social work responses to adverse childhood privileges may contribute to advancement in
    overall health. This article sets forth the concentration to improve the insight of child welfare
    services in the communities served and to minimize the fear and stigma of service involvement.
    The concept illustrated is intrinsically associated to the social work perspective in
    comprehending and evaluating protective health factors, and implementing positive health
    outcomes (Rubin and Babbie, 2011).
    Lesson Learned
    One of the major lessons learnt from this article is that cooperative relationships with
    children can lead to meaningful families. The study suggest that we do not have to compromise
    the safety of children. Creating more constructive helping relationships is vital to improving
    outcomes in child welfare. In fact, it is possible that placing child protection workers in schools

    ARTICLE ANALYSIS
    would be upsetting for children or parents. Accessible service providers have the ability to keep
    children safer because they have better information about how they are doing (Cameron et al
    2012). Even though there are existing child protection system restrictions, it is feasible to
    increase the proportion of child welfare helping relationships.
