Making Safeguarding Personal: What might ‘good’ look like for health and social care commissioners and providers?

This summary sets out the headlines of what should be developed and worked on by commissioners and providers in health and social care − the essential steps − to make safeguarding personal. These essential steps are expanded on throughout the main body of the resource in section 4 with suggestions for how and why these steps should be achieved.
A core message running through this resource is that these core steps are already integral to core business in commissioning and providing in health and social care. This is not new or additional work; these are priorities and principles, within existing frameworks that need to be applied consistently in front line practice.
