Safety, dignity and respect

All adults have the right to live free from abuse, neglect and exploitation. Safeguarding means recognising concerns, respecting consent and escalating appropriately. Do not send urgent safeguarding concerns through a general enquiry form.

Respect, choice and reliable information

Always consider the individual’s wishes, privacy and circumstances. The information here is general guidance; use qualified professional advice and current official resources for decisions affecting health, safety or legal rights.

Urgent help

If someone is in immediate danger, call 112 or 999. For other safeguarding concerns, seek guidance from the HSE or An Garda Síochána. This website does not assert the appointment of a designated safeguarding officer or an adopted reporting procedure.
