What is safeguarding?

Safeguarding is protecting vulnerable adults or children from abuse or neglect.
It means making sure people are supported to get good access to health care and stay well.
It is wrong if vulnerable people are not treated by professionals with the same respect as other patients. It is making sure that people are supported to have full and happy lives.
It is making sure that people get safe and empowering care.
Safeguarding should make sure that people get the support they need to make the most of their lives and get their full equal rights.
