About Course

Welcome to the Safeguarding Adults L1&2 course (Adult Support & Protection). This course is designed to teach adult social care workers the key principles and best practices for keeping adults safe. It covers all the necessary information for level 1 and level 2 requirements, as set by Skills for Health’s CSTF standards.

It’s important to remember that local policies and guidelines must always be followed, and all staff need to know and follow their organisation’s rules.

The second part of this course encourages learners to think about their beliefs and talk openly with service users about the sensitive topics of self-identity and how it affects self-worth, self-esteem, and well-being. Respecting each person’s uniqueness and dignity is at the heart of person-centred care. Sexuality and spirituality are key parts of a person’s individuality. The course further covers sexuality, and intimacy, including legal issues that may come up in Care Homes. Lastly, it looks at spirituality and what it means to different people.
