Adult safeguarding - A Guide for Family Members, Social and Health Care Staff and Students (Paperback)

A guide for managers of nursing homes, hospitals, domiciliary and community-based services in adult Health and Social Care with responsibility for older people, dementia, learning disability and mental health. Adult Safeguarding: A Guide for Family Members, Social and Health Care Staff and Students considers both the reactive and proactive process in adult safeguarding. It launches a six-step process for managers and their teams to ensure the building blocks are in place for good safeguarding and therefore good practice. Where these six steps are successfully in place, they reduce the risk of abuse occurring. The six-step process comes from forty years of experience, including, twenty years of training in this area and other areas of concern raised consistently over that time by participants. The book takes the form of questions and answers, covering questions ranging from 'What's the difference between good practice and good safeguarding?' to 'What is a section 42 enquiry?' While the book is based on current legislation in England and Wales it is written in a general format with the most serious messages relevant in the whole of the United Kingdom and beyond. The book has been read and endorsed by Judith Eke Safeguarding manager for South Gloucestershire Council who has kindly written the foreword.
