Safeguarding Adults Level 2 Training in the UK: Who is it For?

In the UK, Safeguarding Adults Level 2 Training is a more advanced course tailored to individuals who have a higher level of involvement in safeguarding adults at risk and who play key roles in safeguarding processes within their organizations. The Level 2 training aims to deepen understanding, enhance skills, and provide more specialized knowledge to those who work closely with vulnerable adults or have responsibilities related to adult safeguarding. Here are the key groups for whom this training is recommended:

  1. Social Workers and Care Managers: Social workers and care managers, who have substantial responsibilities in safeguarding adults and are involved in complex cases of abuse or neglect, can benefit from Safeguarding Adults Level 2 Training. This advanced course equips them with in-depth knowledge of legal frameworks, multi-agency cooperation, investigative techniques, and risk assessment tools necessary for managing and resolving intricate safeguarding cases.

  2. Senior Healthcare Professionals: Senior healthcare professionals, such as nurses, doctors, and allied health professionals, who often lead or coordinate care provision for vulnerable adults, are ideal candidates for Safeguarding Adults Level 2 Training. This training enhances their capacity to identify subtle signs of abuse, conduct comprehensive assessments, manage challenging safeguarding scenarios, and lead safeguarding investigations within healthcare settings.

  3. Managers and Team Leaders in Social Care and Support Services: Managers and team leaders within social care agencies, support services, and residential facilities have a pivotal role in creating a culture of safeguarding and ensuring that staff members adhere to safeguarding policies and procedures.

Safeguarding Adults Level 2 is a valuable course for workers in health and social care settings who are designated safeguarding leads and/or designated referrers. 

Health care workers, social care workers and those who work in youth services such as activity leaders and passenger transport services may all find this course useful. It is also suitable for volunteers working in care settings.

This online safeguarding training course can be used as part of an induction training programme for new staff as well as refresher training or an ongoing CPD programme for existing staff.

You may also be interested in our Safeguarding Adults Level 1 course. This is an introductory level course which is designed to be relevant for all clinical and non-clinical staff in health and social care settings.

What does the Safeguarding Adults Level 1 course cover?

This course provides designated safeguarding leads and referrers with an overview of how to respond to potential and actual safeguarding issues. 

When you have completed the course, you will understand the frameworks and legislation for safeguarding vulnerable adults. You will also know how to respond to the concerns of service users and their families and how to develop strategies to protect those who do not give consent.

Safeguarding Adults Level 2 expands on the knowledge gained from the Level 1 Safeguarding Adults course. After recapping the six principles of safeguarding vulnerable adults, you will next learn about assessing the mental capacity of those in your care. This section of the course also covers interventions and how you should proceed if you disagree with a service user’s decisions.

Under the Care Act 2014, local authorities have a duty to advocate for those in their care, and this duty is covered within Safeguarding Adults Level 2. You’ll learn about the importance of safeguarding advocacy and the role played by an IMCA (Independent Mental Capacity Advocate).

How carers should handle potential cases of abuse is initially covered in the Safeguarding Adults Level 1 course and we return to this topic in more depth in Level 2. Examples of safeguarding issues discussed in the course include record keeping, assessing significant harm and the difference between poor practice and possible abuse.

Supervision and decision making are important for good safeguarding practice and so you will be trained in the important principles behind both of these. Designated safeguarding leads will often take part in case conferences, review meetings and Safeguarding Adults Reviews (SAR) so this course covers what will be required of you in these situations.

You’ll also learn about the various stages of the enquiry process and what role is played by designated safeguarding leads in this process.
