You will ensure Safeguarding Children and Adults requirements are followed and participate in meetings as appropriate.

You will direct unqualified staff in order to ensure delivery of a high standard of care to service users.

You will participate in setting standards for care based on sound evidence and research findings.

You will participate in the systematic monitoring and evaluation of service users that you have responsibility for.
