Course Description
Our Online Adult Safeguarding course is designed with a core principle in mind: every individual holds fundamental human rights. Foremost among these is the entitlement to health, happiness, and respectful treatment, irrespective of race, age, gender, or location. When these rights are violated, it is imperative to adhere to guidelines, policies, and procedures to ensure that everyone, without exception, can lead a life where these fundamental values and rights are respected and upheld.
Regardless of age, gender, religion, ethnicity, or background, every individual has the right to lead a healthy, fulfilling life. Adult safeguarding aims to mitigate and address risks faced by vulnerable individuals.
Throughout this Online Safeguarding E-Learning Course, you will encounter various facts, statistics, and insights concerning the risks faced by adults requiring care and support, the forms of abuse they endure, and the significant safeguarding laws established to mitigate such abuse. By the conclusion of this Online Adult Safeguarding Course, you will have acquired a deeper comprehension of safeguarding principles and the ability to apply them within your role.
This entails the capacity to elucidate key terminology associated with safeguarding, identify primary legislation pertinent to safeguarding and the rationale behind its implementation to prevent abuse, recognise and address the ten types of abuse experienced by vulnerable adults, identify and report suspicions of abuse or neglect, delineate your role, duties, and limitations, ensure individuals are supported in making independent decisions and granting informed consent, and ultimately, implement measures to reduce the risk of abuse within the environment.
