Coventry Safeguarding Adults Board

Joan’s IntroductionThe Care and Support Statutory Guidance for the Care Act 2014 states that the Safeguarding Adults Boards should ensure that relevant partners provide training for staff and volunteers on the policy, procedures and professional practices that are in place locally, which reflects their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding adult arrangements.

A key priority of the workforce development strategy will be to continue to develop the core program of Adults Safeguarding Training and explore the opportunities for multi-agency delivery.

I would like to welcome you to our Training Programme for 2019-20, we will be publishing the training guide regularly throughout the year to keep you up to date with training opportunities. This programme gives details of the different levels of training available from partner agencies, including the aims and objectives and the target audience for each course, alongside how to apply.

We also recognises the importance of the quality of safeguarding training and a Quality Assurance Scheme has therefore been established in order to provide training standards and a process for the Board to fulfill these responsibilities for safeguarding adults at risk training.

Safeguarding Adults Competences and Training StructureThe key national standards influencing the content of any training and development plans and safeguarding adult’s courses in general are:

Care Act 2014 ADASS (Association of Directors of Adult Social Services)

Guidance on Safeguarding Adults (2013) Statement of Government Policy on Safeguarding Adults (2013) Safeguarding Adults: A National Framework of Standards (ADASS 2005), especially Standard National Competency Framework for Safeguarding Adults (2010) Adult Social Care Common Induction Standards (Care Certificate from April 2015) Qualifications and Standards Framework (QCF) CQC (Care Quality Commission) Essential Standards (Outcome 7) Safeguarding Adults: The Role of Health Services (2011) College of Policing: Code of Ethics (2014) Cavendish Report (2013)

Safeguarding Adults Competencies

A competence is a combination of skills, knowledge and experience held by an individual person. Competence grows through experience and the individual’s abilities to learn and adapt. Training and mentoring can support this process but there are a wide range of methods which can be used and attendance of training does not necessarily signify compliance. All staff should be assisted to develop their safeguarding competencies; this can be done by undertaking formal training and/ or development opportunities. All staff should be assessed as proficient against the competence relevant to their occupational role and responsibilities within the organisation. All staff should know when and how to report a Safeguarding Adult concern

The National Competency Framework for Safeguarding Adults (National Competency Framework for Safeguarding Adults - Bournemouth University and Learn to Care, 2010) describes and gives examples of four categories of staff (Staff groups A, B, C and D).

Training Structure

The Care and Support Statutory Guidance for the Care Act 2014 states that the Safeguarding Adults Boards should ensure that relevant partners provide training for staff and volunteers on the policy, procedures and professional practices that are in place locally, which reflects their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding adult arrangements. This should include:

Basic mandatory induction training to raise awareness that abuse can take place and the duty to report More detailed awareness training, including training on recognition of abuse and

responsibilities in respect of the procedures in their particular agency Specialist training for managers and those who will be undertaking safeguarding enquiries,

and managers Training for Elected Members and others e.g. Healthwatch members Post qualifying or advanced training for those who work with more complex enquiries

and responses or who act as their organization’s expert in a particular field, for example in relation to legal or social work, those who provide medical or nursing advice to the organisation or the Board.

A framework will be used to identify the appropriate level of training to meet the requirements of staff as indicated by their role, level of responsibility, performance expectations and experience (Appendix 1).

The framework will inform the Training Programme that provides development activities linked to increasing levels of specialism, complexity of task and level of contact with adults at risk.

This framework will be aligned to the National Competency Framework for Safeguarding Adults and the framework will be finalised on receipt of the final version of the NHS England proposed Intercollegiate document for Adults.

Coventry Safeguarding Adults Board Safeguarding Training Quality Assurance SchemeThe CSAB Multi-Agency Workforce Development Strategy 2017-19 recognises the importance of the quality of safeguarding training. This scheme aims to review adult safeguarding training in order to assure the Board that all staff from partner agencies are receiving relevant safeguarding awareness training which includes the appropriate content.

This Quality Assurance Scheme has therefore been established in order to provide training standards and a process for the Board to fulfil these responsibilities for safeguarding adults at risk training.

Objectives of the Scheme

The scheme has three main objectives:

To ensure that course content meets appropriate standards To ensure that course content is updated regularly in line with new relevant national/ local

legislation or practice guidance. To ensure that the effectiveness of training is monitored and evaluated and informs future

practice For full details of the scheme please see Coventry Adult Safeguarding Board website address in Appendix 2.

Partner Agencies Training Delivery

As part of their annual plan the Work Force Development Sub Group has collated this brochure to enable staff to identify available Safeguarding Training. In doing this the group are providing strategic direction to safeguarding training provision across Coventry and direct accountability to the board.

This brochure should be used as part of ongoing discussions within supervision and appraisals and should not replace continuous learning gained through reading, research, shadowing and peer discussion.

The relevance of the safeguarding training to the position held by the attendee will depend upon the level the training is aimed at; this information can be found on each training plan so attendees must take responsibility for ensuring they are attending a course that meets their requirements. Further information about the levels can be found above.

Attendance and cancellation fee information is listed on the individual training plans along with joining instructions for each course. Information is also given as to whether courses are open to all organisations or just for the agency which provides them.

This is the first version of the Training Programme, although it will be reviewed and updated regularly to keep staff informed of the training that is available.
