The QCS Safeguarding Toolkit 2024 continues to be your one-stop resource for comprehensive guidance on safeguarding adults. Like you, we believe safeguarding is everybody’s business, and everyone has a role to play in ensuring the safety and wellbeing of your service users and adults at risk.
We understand that safeguarding can be a complex and challenging area, which is why we have developed a range of templates, editable PDFs, checklists and guidance that cover all aspects of safeguarding, from fact-finding to raising concerns, medication errors to physical intervention.
Your toolkit is designed to be easy to use and understand, providing managers and their teams with the information and support they need to ensure compliance and operate effectively. Use this Toolkit to help promote good communication and record-keeping, reduce the risk of harm to your service users, and ensure that everyone in your team is working towards the same goal.
