Our safeguarding leads are Dr Gina Finch (adult safeguarding) and Dr Jess Patel (child safeguarding) at Valley Surgery and Dr Sarah Thomas at Chilwell Meadows Surgery. Health care professionals have a privileged access through our role in caring for those individuals who may be vulnerable in society to the risk of abuse.
It is our duty to be alert to this possibility and to be proactive in raising concerns, liaising with other professionals involved in the individuals care and if concerns exist, reporting this to the Nottinghamshire Multi-agency Safeguarding Hub . Please click here for a leaflet that will inform you on what to do if you have any suspicions about the welfare of any vulnerable child or adult.
