Dr Ali Robins will lead this section, which complies with Adult Safeguarding Training Level 3. The Care Act 2014 sets out a clear legal framework for how we all should protect adults at risk of abuse or neglect. This half day interactive workshop for primary care teams, will look at the guidance, and discuss a number of challenging safeguarding dilemmas, to see how we can meet our statutory duties in practice. It will cover aspects of the assessment of individuals, documentation (including READ coding), risk identification, management and escalation, as well as the local referral processes and inter agency working.
