The Adult Safeguarding Team are offering a workshop "Putting Safeguarding into Practice"

The purpose of these is to ensure that the principles and duties of safeguarding adults are holistically, consistently and conscientiously applied with the needs of adults at risk or abuse or neglect, and they remain at the heart of all that we do. This includes where concerns are raised about poor clinical practice, and also when allegations are made about staff.

By attending, it will help build skills and knowledge needed to be able to support all other colleagues across the trust, ensuring that all staff identify and report safeguarding concerns appropriately.

Please contact your manager if you would like further details.

Thankyou 😊

Sarah, the hospital Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (IDVA) is leaving the trust today. We hope this role will be replaced with a new IDVA in due course.

You can speak to the safeguarding team with any concerns and you can refer patients to external services as appropriate. Please search IDVA on the trust intranet for more information on how to do this.

Organisational abuse occurs when individuals receive poor care or are neglected within an institution or care home setting, and it can even occur in a patient’s own home.
