Shropshire Partners in Care has a vacancy for a Safeguarding Training & Development Worker. This post will develop the skills of managers in the adult independent health and social care sector in Telford & Wrekin. This will support them to improve the quality of the services that they provide and help to prevent the abuse of vulnerable people in their care.
