Children and Adults at Risk Safeguarding Policy

The practice is committed to complying with legislation and statutory guidance to protect children and adults at risk of abuse or neglect. The practice has an effective process for identifying and responding appropriately to signs and allegations of abuse. There is also an effective process for preventing abuse before it occurs and minimising the risks of further abuse once it has occurred.

Kelly Harnett is the Practice Safeguarding Lead for children and adults.

A child is defined as a person under the age of 18. An ‘Adult at Risk’ is any adult who has needs for care and support by reason of mental or other disability, age or illness; (whether or not the L.A. is meeting any of those needs); is experiencing, or at risk of abuse or neglect; and as a result of those care and support needs is unable to protect themselves from either the risk of, or the experience of abuse or neglect. The Care Act 2014 introduced the term ‘Adult at Risk’ replacing the phrase ‘vulnerable adult’, however the two are used interchangeably within this policy and supporting documents.

All team members are trained to recognise signs of abuse in children and adults at risk. Training to take appropriate action including recording and reporting is provided at induction and at regular intervals.

Any suspicions and allegations of abuse are taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately.

All team members are required to undergo appropriate DBS/PVG/Access NI checks. The practice does not employ anyone who has been barred from working with and treating children or adults at risk.

Good practice guidelines
A chaperone is always present when treating a child or vulnerable adult.
Gratuitous physical contact is never made with a patient. If a patient needs comforting, team members use discretion to ensure that any physical contact is appropriate.

Any concerns are referred to Lauren Andrews or one of our safeguarding officers: Daisy Bambrick, Kelly Harnett or Tiffany Redding.

What Our Patients Say About Us

  • I went for my regularcheck up. Vanessa is always very thorough and explains everything which includes seeing your teeth and x trays on the screen which is helpful. The hygienist Nick is equally as thorough. Talking you through the procedure and making recomendations with regards to home care, brushing , flossing etc. The nursing and reception team are very welcoming and supportive . An all round 5* service. I came out feeling totally reassured and confident that I'm in good hands at Al Nashar. My compliments to all the management and staff. Keep it up!

  • I have been with el nashar for years! And feel so fortunate to have such a lovely dentist! At the weekend I had an emergency where I was in excruciating pain, I gave the out of hours a call and within an how on a Sunday night I was in having the treatment I needed to get rid of the pain, thank you so much to Jo and Hannah for getting me in, i would never recommend any other dentist. Lauren is my usual lady to go and with quite a fear of the dentist she always makes me feel safe and relaxed, all the staff go above and beyond to meet your own individual needs. A big thank you again!

  • I am so pleased to be able to write this review - having been scheduled in for an emergency appointment which the surgery fitted in just a few hours after calling, the service I received was incredible. Joanna and her nurse (apologies for not remembering her name) looked after me incredibly well and although I am not (yet) registered with the practice, i was given 5 star treatment, support and advice. The reception staff were helpful, knowledgeable and efficient and processed my registration promptly even sending through a copy of my X-ray for me to keep. Dental treatment is never 'cheap' and although I paid probably a little more than expected, every penny was worth it for the treatment and thoroughness of the team that helped me to deal with what was a debilitating toothache. i cannot recommend the practice highly enough and they set a standard that others should aspire to...! Such is the extent to which I am impressed, despite living over three hours away, I shall be registering with Joanna and the team for any future treatment. Thank you all, best wishes to each of you and see you again soon as a registered patient. Gordon...
