SOVA
SOVA (Safeguarding of Vulnerable Adults)
Train-the-Trainer Course
Overview
SOVA (or POVA as some people still
refer to it), seems to be an issue
that we hear about on a weekly
basis.
Applying safeguarding measuring is
both a moral and legal
requirement. The defence of the
people less well able to defend
themselves is something that any
right minded person should
embrace, however the practical
issues of reporting suspicions etc.
makes reality far more complex.
The course looks at these issues,
barriers and concepts and suggests
some solutions that can be adopted
in different situations.
