Cygnet were delighted this year to sponsor the Independent Health Providers Safeguarding Forum (IHPSF).
The IHPSF acts as a community of practice which learns from excellence and shared best practice, it provides an opportunity to engage safeguarding colleagues within the independent sector; discuss safeguarding topics and share information, ideas, experiences and challenges.
The IHPSF provides a quarterly reflective forum via Microsoft Teams is open to all ‘provider level’ Safeguarding Leads for Independent health providers that provide services under the NHS Standard Contract. This means that in the forum is not for exclusively private providers, consultants or trainers.
The IHPSF is designed to complement the work of the NHS Safeguarding structure and the Forum Chair reports directly to the NHS England National Safeguarding Team or the Safeguarding Adults National Network (SANN).
Providers should nominate the individual(s) who represent the organisation on a national level where possible. Please contact [email protected] for more information.
