Safeguarding information for colleagues

There have been reports of safeguarding and domestic abuse increasing during Covid-19, so it is important that safety remains a priority and we keep the usual safety nets in place, including all the core safeguarding processes.

We have created a two page document on Safeguarding information for staff, which you can find by clicking here.

Information in the document includes:

• Contact information for Named Nurses for Safeguarding
• Information on Domestic Abuse, including information for managers
• Safeguarding contacts including the Police and local Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence services
• Dementia support and Information.

Support and contact information:

Safeguarding Adults: sfh-tr.safeguardingadults@nhs.net
Safeguarding Children: sfh-tr.safeguardingchildren@nhs.net

Anyone in immediate danger should call 999, even if they are in isolation. If survivors are unable to speak, they can call 999 and dial 55 when prompted to let services know they are there and need assistance.
