Staff should have an understanding of both their role and responsibilities, and those of other professionals and organisations they may come into contact with. This is essential for effective multi-agency and inter-agency working. Safeguarding training is mandatory for all staff, regardless of role. Training needs analysis is mapped to the national Intercollegiate Guidance (2019) documents for both adults and children, and is delivered via a range of blended learning, with online and face to face training options. This training includes Prevent, Female Genital Mutilation, exploitation and encourages all staff to use their professional curiosity to Think Family. Cromwell Hospital has a robust system in place for monitoring and ensuring compliance which is reported by the Safeguarding Committee to the hospital Board quarterly. Cromwell Hospital also works in partnership with the Local Safeguarding Children Board which ensures multi agency exposure and sharing of best practice.
