Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is a safeguarding form?

The form is to be used only for reporting suspected abuse or neglect of an adult at risk to social services. If you want to let social services know other information or to request services or support, please contact the appropriate social services department.

What happens when someone is referred to safeguarding?

If we consider they are still at risk of abuse we will put a safeguarding plan in place. This plan will identify what can be done to prevent the abuse or reduce the possibility for further abuse. We will identify someone to make sure the plan is put into action.

What are the consequences of safeguarding?

The most serious potential consequence of a failure to safeguard is the harm to the person at risk. Other consequences include: a prison sentence of up to 5 years and/or a fine for the individual who failed to safeguard.

What does SARs stand for in safeguarding?

Safeguarding Adults Reviews (SARs) are a statutory requirement for Safeguarding Adults Boards (SABs). Safeguarding adult practice can be improved by identifying what is helping and what is hindering safeguarding work, in order to tackle barriers to good practice and protect adults from harm.

What happens if you report a safeguarding issue?

If the local authority accepts the safeguarding referral they will have responsibility to investigate. This is called an enquiry, and they may ask you to assist with it. If they do not accept the referral, your organisation may decide to do an internal investigation.

What happens during a safeguarding investigation?

The investigation will involve: face-to-face contact with the adult at risk of harm including where relevant an assessment of capacity. ascertaining the views and wishes of the adult at risk and providing appropriate support. undertaking an assessment of risk of harm.

What is considered a safeguarding issue?

A safeguarding concern can relate to risk of abuse or neglect. There must be a focus on the prevention of abuse and neglect.

What happens when you get reported to safeguarding?

We will arrange to talk to the adult at risk as soon as possible. If they have difficulty with decision-making, we might consult a relative, carer, or friend on their behalf. We can also arrange an independent advocate who will represent the adults views and wishes.
