Safeguarding Adults - Awareness and Responsibilities
About this Event

This training is offered free of charge to those living and working in Halton and who have a direct involvement in the care and support of adults with additional needs. This includes volunteers, carers, those employed through a personal budget and those who use services. Courses covers local process, policy and protocol and are not relevant to those out of area.

Aims:

A range of people may be involved in supporting adults with additional needs to live their day-to-day lives. This session will provide staff, volunteers and carers (paid or unpaid) with the knowledge and understanding of adult safeguarding requirements and enable them to recognise their own responsibilities within this process.

Safeguarding is everyone’s business and this course looks at how and why safeguarding adults is important, what constitutes abuse and harm and when and how to raise an alert.

It is aimed at ensuring participants can respond to concerns effectively and take appropriate action where there is an identified risk of harm.
