Adult Safeguarding

Safeguarding Adults

We take the abuse of vulnerable adults very seriously. We are committed to preventing the abuse of adults and responding promptly when abuse is suspected.

We work closely with colleagues from the local authority, police, voluntary and other health agencies to intervene, protect and attain the best possible outcomes for vulnerable people.

If you are concerned that you or someone you know may be experiencing abuse or neglect, you should raise this with your carer in the first instance. You can also contact our team on the number below for more information and help.
