The Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) has published research identifying a number of warning signs to help employers recognise and prevent the abuse of children and vulnerable adults by social care staff and volunteers. Findings include: incidents of abuse against children are rarely one-off incidents, and are more likely to be a pattern of repeated or multiple incidents or behaviour. |
