Registered managers have responsibility for managing safeguarding in their services including both adult and children’s safeguarding even where the service supports adults only. Any service must have effective risk management procedures and processes which are motivated by ‘least restrictive practice’, respecting an individual’s choice and independence while maintaining safety for all. It’s important to understand complaints and whistleblowing procedures and how these can support continuous improvement in a service.
