  • Good knowledge of safeguarding legislation and principles under the Care Act 2014 is key to this role. Being able to effectively manage a caseload of a high level of complexity is also key, along with wider knowledge of the Care Act, Mental Capacity Act, Making Safeguarding Personal principles and ensuring effective support to adults with care and support needs is sustained.
