Safeguarding (Staying safe)
All staff are required to have enhanced DBS status and receive appropriate training on Health and safety and safeguarding including: detection of abuse through symptoms, indicators and behaviour of the service user and referral processes. Through induction, all staff are familiarised with all relevant policies and procedures to safeguard our service users and the need to report any concerns including neglect to our designated officer who will notify social services as appropriate. We do not tolerate any form of abuse, which is considered gross misconduct. All staff must read and sign the relevant policies. Each client will have a comprehensive risk assessment which includes a safe moving and handling assessment on joining our service and all health and safety aspects including a personal emergency evacuation plan will be included in the service users’ records. We carry out regular reviews with each service user to consider any possible abuse including: Physical Institutional / Social e.g. inappropriate restraint, misuse of medication Sexual Psychological / Emotional Verbal or sectarian Financial Neglect Discrimination Our Policies are regularly updated and reviewed against national guidelines.

committee and sit on the management board.
Through these committees the service users identify group and individual activities
that encourages participation, volunteering opportunities and access to job skills.

focus on sustaining and promoting independence.
