Description
If you work in a role where you’ll interact with vulnerable adults, you are required by law to receive training to recognise signs of abuse and neglect, as well as take steps to reduce the risk of them occurring. These roles involve several key responsibilities, including reporting potential cases to the appropriate authorities, maintaining the confidentiality of sensitive information, and supporting victims.
Our Safeguarding Adults Level 2 course provides everything you need to certify your ability to care for at-risk adults in your role. With realistic and engaging scenarios, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the training programme and apply what you learn to real-life safeguarding situations.
Why take this course?
Our Level 2 Safeguarding training is ideal for ensuring you can follow the necessary procedures for reporting workplace wellbeing concerns responsibly. It provides learners with hands-on examples and case studies to help trainees understand common safeguarding jargon, multi-agency practice, and effective practice.
You’ll learn about essential topics, including FGM, trafficking, and safer recruitment, to provide a well-rounded understanding of key safeguarding areas. By the time you’ve achieved your certification, you’ll be able to recognise a wide range of potential abuse signifiers, as well as report them to the necessary authorities discreetly and professionally.
Who needs safeguarding training?
Level 2 Safeguarding courses are designed for those who come into contact with vulnerable adults in their workplace. These courses are needed by professionals in many roles, including healthcare professionals, teachers working with vulnerable adults, healthcare students, doctors, nurses, and more.
Individuals working with adults at risk of abuse and mistreatment are required to receive safeguarding training by law. By finishing this course, you’ll be able to advance your career and make your workplace a safer environment by combating abuse effectively.
What level of safeguarding training do I need?
A Level 2 Safeguarding training course provides a more in-depth understanding of how to report possible cases of neglect and abuse than a Level 1 course. Once you receive your certification, you’ll be able to participate in a safeguarding enquiry, and you’ll be familiar with all the necessary reporting and recording procedures for potential safeguarding concerns.
Level 3 Safeguarding courses are required for individuals with an active role in safeguarding, such as designated safeguarding officers, police officers, doctors, and others. For more information on choosing your appropriate package, read our guide on what level of safeguarding training you need.
