SAFEGUARDING AND THE DENTAL TEAM
The incidence of all types of abuse and neglect has significantly increased since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, meaning it is more important than ever for dental teams to be vigilant about recognising potential or actual safeguarding issues. How you deal with these issues will make a difference to the victims so it is essential that dental teams know how best to respond to safeguarding concerns. Pat’s presentation aims to provide you and your team with the guidance you need to help victims of abuse in the best way possible.
