At Dimensions, safeguarding is central to how we support people with learning disabilities and autism. This easy-to-use infographic outlines what safeguarding means, the types of abuse to be aware of, and how to raise a concern.
We know that some families worry about raising a concern or making a complaint, so we have tried to make the process as easy as possible and are very clear with all of our colleagues that no-one’s support will be affected and tenancies will not be at risk.
Involving the people we support and their families in finding and selecting their support team is an important part of a successful recruitment and selection process.
