Safeguarding is about understanding the various types of abuse and neglect, being able to identify the signs, knowing what steps to take if you suspect abuse is happening and what to do if a child or an adult discloses abuse. Understanding the Safeguarding agenda will also help ensure your organisation works responsibly and safely, without putting staff in vulnerable positions.
Delivered by experienced practitioners from Liverpool Social Care Partnership CIC, this one day training session is designed to provide delegates with a basic awareness of safeguarding and the action they should take if they have cause for concern.
By the end of the course participants will be able to:
- Understand safeguarding in the context of the legal framework and local systems for safeguarding vulnerable people
