Adult Safeguarding: Roles and Competencies for Health Care Staff
One of the most important principles of safeguarding is that it is everyone’s responsibility. Health care staff frequently work with people in their moments of greatest need and can witness health and social inequalities which have a direct impact on the lives of people they care for.

It sets out minimum training requirements along with education and training principles.
