Safeguarding Adults
If your work or volunteering brings you into contact with adults who need care and support, you have a duty to help protect them from abuse and neglect while respecting their choices and independence. This course explains the types of abuse vulnerable adults can face, how to spot the signs, the safeguarding principles established by the Care Act, and what to do when you have a concern. It strikes the balance every care role demands: protecting people while supporting and empowering them. Suitable for paid professionals and volunteers alike, with a verified certificate of completion issued on passing.
