Adult Safeguarding – People First
Everyone is entitled to live their life in safety without being mistreated, hurt or exploited by others. But some people’s situations may make them less able to protect themselves from harm or mistreatment. This may happen as people get older, or because they have a mental health issue, a disability, a sensory impairment or some form of illness. Mistreating someone in this way is known as ‘abuse’, and if someone fails to properly look after another person in their care, this is known as ‘neglect.’
Both abuse and neglect of people are never acceptable.
This site explains more about what abuse and neglect are, who is particularly at risk of abuse, and how to get help and advice if you or someone you know is being mistreated, abused or neglected.
