Wellbeing

Staff wellbeing and the wellbeing of children and young people are closely linked. We can support your staff through supervision and reflective practice. Helping them to carry this emotional load.

We can also bring the calm when safeguarding is complex using our 'Thinking fast, thinking slow' managing complexity model.

Using our model can help make decisions that build on learing from serious case reviews.

The frameowrk ensables you to work through a clear process examining all aspects of your safeguarding concerns.

You can access our online course via Debbie Innes Safeguarding Accademy or you can contact us for Debbie's support.

Supervision

Reflective supervision is an essential component of safe and effective practice. The work of safeguarding is complex and hard emotionally. Managing safeguarding situations has an ongoing impact on all the professionals involved. Without effective supervision there is the risk of ongoing and secondary trauma which can impact on their decision making, risk management and personal lives.

We can support you to build an effective reflective supervision model which works with your organisation’s needs. With qualified supervisors we have carried out supervision in a number of organisations using a variety of different models. We are able to analyse your organisation and make suggestions as to what would best support you and your staff within the organisational capacity and culture.

You can also join our ‘Introduction to Reflective Supervision Training’ available via Debbie Innes Safeguarding Academy.
