Review Quotes: Post compulsory teachers now work in a variety in different contexts and can now find themselves working with an ever widening range of vulnerable adults. Understanding a wide range of safeguarding issues is vital and more important than ever, this book is well worth all those who will be working with vulnerable adults, especially in the community or care home settings.--Mr Sam Emmett (7/27/2017 12:00:00 AM)
