Neglect in the Disabled Child course for GPs
Children and young people with disabilities often have very complex health requirements and are automatically classed as being 'children in need'.
From a safeguarding perspective, children and young people with disabilities require particular vigilance to ensure that any instances of abuse and neglect are not missed.

- have completed the eLfH Safeguarding Children Level 3 introductory session
