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 cannot speak highly enough of everyone at this practice. After a lifetime of dental anxiety, I had my first filling today, and it was completely pain free (can't believe I'm saying that!). A huge thank you to Rajesh and Kera for making the procedure such a positive experience, and to Tiffany, the Treatment Co-Ordinator, for taking the time to prepare and reassure me both before the appointment and on the day itself. I felt genuinely cared for from start to finish and would highly recommend this practice to anyone, especially if you're nervous about visiting the dentist.

  • PART 1 OF REVIEW I was referred to El Nashar in Newton Abbot after my then Dentist in Chudleigh failed to look after my needs. My top front teeth needed urgent repair and I was initially seen by Dr Joanna Sutcliffe. The advice and help I received from commencement has been really good and I am now awaiting a bespoke moulded top teeth fitting to enable me to move forward with teeth !! Initially, I had to see a Hygienist, Sian Baldwin 3 times, and because of her advice I changed my brushing regime to be more thorough. I will return with an update once my treatment is completed. So far everyone is really friendly and give a great service PART 2 OF REVIEW Following my initial review, I am happy to report that I now have an installed set of El Nashar "Gnashers" as my top front teeth !! A bespoke installation thanks to the wonderful handiwork and measurements of Dr Joanna and her brilliant assistant Mary. Right from the start, my experience has been 5 Star. All staff are polite, helpful, and ready to assist. My hygienist, Sian Baldwin, taught me how to properly look after my teeth and I am most grateful for that. I now clean my teeth differently and more thoroughly than I have ever done. With my new El Nashar "Gnashers" from Dr Joanna's design, I am good to go !!! Thank you El Nashar for my ongoing 5 Star Treatment,

  • We had the most incredible experience with Erica today. she truly deserves every one of these 5 stars and more! From the moment we arrived, she was so warm, calm, and genuinely kind with my son Jaxon. She has such a natural way with children and immediately put him at ease, which made the whole appointment feel effortless. Erica was so patient, gentle, and reassuring throughout, taking the time to explain everything in a way that made Jaxon feel comfortable and confident. It’s rare to come across someone who is not only so professional, but also so genuinely caring. I honestly couldn’t recommend her more highly. she completely transformed what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into such a positive one. We’re so grateful — thank you, Erica
