We want to offer our residents a sense of choice and independence and you will be the person to ensure we do.

All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken
