Description

The Kent and Medway Safeguarding Adults Board (KMSAB), on behalf of Kent County Council, is a statutory service which exists to make sure that all member agencies are working together to help keep Kent and Medway's adults safe from harm and to protect their rights.
The Safeguarding Adults Board (SAB) has agreed to commission multi-agency training for staff from its partner agencies. In the delivery of the training, we seek a training provider who can deliver the specified training agenda detailed below, but also work collaboratively with the SAB in terms of training delivery, feedback, and evaluation of delivery.

The KMSAB has six aims for its multi-agency training.

1. Ensure that the learning is accessible
2. Ensure that multi-agency staff are up to date with legislation and best practice in relation to safeguarding and their associated duties and responsibilities
3. We will be pro-active in the delivery of learning to enhance early intervention and prevention of risks of harm
4. Ensure that the focus of learning and development is person-centred following Making Safeguarding Personal protocols
5. Ensure that collaborative working across agencies is enhanced
6. Learning will be current, relevant and represent the local situation.

Staff attending the KMSAB multi-agency training will be those with responsibility for direct practice in safeguarding from a range of agencies, including both Kent County Council and Medway Council, Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group, Health Trusts, providing acute, primary and community services, Kent Police and Kent Fire & Rescue Service.
