We have now updated our Policies & Procedures Pack to include a Non-Mobile Child Policy template.
Accidental bruising on non-independently mobile children and infants is rare and should therefore always warrant further investigation. Local Safeguarding Children Boards recommend that all childcare providers have a specific policy in place to ensure the protection of vulnerable children.
In addition to this new policy, we have also revised and improved the following policies in relation to safeguarding and accidents:
- Child Protection / Safeguarding Policy
- Accident & Incident Policy
- Adult Protection / Safeguarding Policy
