Safeguarding Adults: Level 3 Training

This course contributes towards the achievement of Level 3 Safeguarding competencies, as set out in Safeguarding for Adults: Roles and Competencies.

On this course, you’ll build the skills to ensure people at risk of abuse and neglect receive the care and protection they need to stay safe and unharmed.

You’ll explore safeguarding in a professional context and learn how to appropriately share information on safeguarding concerns in writing and in meetings.

You’ll also reflect on the complexity of the role of supervision in safeguarding and learn ways to overcome safeguarding challenges.

Everyone taking part has three weeks from when they start to complete the sessions. If you’d like to extend your access, you can upgrade. The good news is that in partnership with FutureLearn we’re now able to offer this upgrade free of charge to NHS employees (and those directly contracted to provide NHS services) in England. The upgrade means that you’ll receive a certificate on successful completion of Introduction to Leadership for Personalised Care, as well as unlimited access to the sessions and materials.
