CHSAB: Safeguarding Adults Workshop for Managers and Safeguarding Leads

The aim of this 3-hour live online learning session is to provide an opportunity for managers and safeguarding leads in partner organisations and services to explore their responsibilities in relation to safeguarding adults.

This programme provides an opportunity to discuss operational and practice issues on the prevention and protection of adults from abuse. The programme explores how managers and safeguarding leads can contribute to safeguarding adults at risk within the wider safeguarding process e.g. planning meetings, providing information for safeguarding enquires, dealing with matters in relation to staff, attending safeguarding meetings and contributing to effective
safeguarding plans.

Programme Aims:

1. To enable managers and safeguarding leads to embed safeguarding and prevention in their work setting and work practices;
2. To develop confidence in using the multi-agency safeguarding adults policy and procedures for the benefit of adults at risk.
