CIoS SAB Self-Neglect and Hoarding Policy Launch October 2024
Join the integrated health safeguarding services, safeguarding adult board colleagues and partner agencies to discuss the newly updated joint self-neglect and hoarding policy.
Self-neglect remains one of the main safeguarding themes seen nationally as well as locally, it is vital people struggling to manage their care and support needs and tasks of daily living get the support they need from the services best placed to help them.
The policy can be found here and there is a handy bite size guide here.
The sessions will be delivered by representatives from CFT/RCHT and SAB and will be looking at some of the patient/service user stories that have led to the update and think about how the new risk assessment tool can be practically applied when there are concerns around self-neglect.
The links are below to the sessions, you only need to attend one session:
