Safeguarding vulnerable individuals in care homes is a critical responsibility in the health and social care sector. To support care home staff, we’re introducing our Safeguarding Adults Process Flowchart. This essential resource clearly outlines each step to take when observing or suspecting abuse or when noticing any physical or psychological injury in a service user.

Implement the Adult Safeguarding Process

When safeguarding concerns arise, it’s critical to act without delay. If you or a colleague suspects abuse or observes signs of harm, taking immediate action through the adult safeguarding process is essential to prevent further incidents. The Safeguarding Adults Process Flowchart outlines a systematic approach, making it easy to know exactly what to do when making a safeguarding referral. By incorporating this flowchart into daily practice, care home staff can feel prepared and empowered to respond effectively, prioritising the safety and well-being of residents.
