ABOUT THIS COURSE
Safeguarding Of Vulnerable Adults (SOVA) is a training programme about protecting vulnerable adults and keeping them safe from harm. It's about recognising the signs of abuse and knowing what to do. This course covers both levels 1 & 2.
Safeguarding is not something that is done in seclusion, and this training highlights the importance of all the relevant services working together in a 'partnership of care'. It also highlights the importance of the individual - a 'person-centred' approach.
This training explains the seven major forms of abuse and gives step-by-step guidance to deal with abuse; including raising an alert, making a referral and what to include in a written report. It's essential to act quickly if you think abuse may be happening - the quicker it's spotted, the quicker something can be done about it.
