Introduction
BrisDoc recognises the importance of all staff, co-owners, self-employed staff and independent contractors having the required safeguarding competencies and knowledge relevant to their role that enable them to recognise, support, escalate and report any concerns regarding children and adults at risk.
Brisdoc will follow the Royal College of General Practice (RCGP) standards that are for all staff working in a general practice setting including urgent care and Out of Hours. The standards are for all-ages and apply to both child and adult safeguarding.
This SOP is for all employed co-owners. This SOP will outline safeguarding training requirements, specifically in more detail level 3 safeguarding training. The SOP will clarify the process of how the standards of training are evidenced within Brisdoc and how this is monitored and reported as an organisation.
Self-employed staff will follow the following guidance: https://www.radar-brisdoc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Self-Employed-Independent-GP-Recruitment-SOP-version-15.3.pdf
