Staying Safe: Working with Dangerous Clients in Safeguarding Children
Recent events have shown what a dangerous occupation social work can be. By using a risk assessment model and audience-led enactment, this session will help you identify potentially dangerous situations and examine the conflict between staying safe as a worker, whilst continuing to meet the needs of the client. Although the enactment focuses upon a home visit, the principles of staying safe apply throughout the profession.
Speakers:
- Ray Braithwaite, Trainer in ways of managing aggression and stress at work
- Ruth Cartwright, Professional Officer (England), BASW
