This e-learning resource for Safeguarding Children and Young People is an important and timely project to support the work of all healthcare professionals who come into contact with children and young people.

Delivered by e-Learning for Healthcare (e-LfH) in partnership with the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) the e-learning aims to meet statutory training requirements so that healthcare providers can ensure their teams are up-to-date with the issues surrounding Child Protection.


“This Safeguarding Project will have a significant impact on the current training and education provision and make a positive contribution to the prevention of child abuse, physical, mental and sexual, as well as reducing the prevalence of neglect, as incorporated in the modern child safeguarding agenda”

Julia Moore OBE - National Director, e-LfH

The e-learning initially covers Level 1 and Level 2 as laid out in the Intercollegiate Document - Safeguarding Children and Young People: Roles and Competences for Health Care Staff. April 2006.

The Intercollegiate Document was commended by Sir Liam Donaldson (CMO) and Professor Christine Beasley CBE (CNO) and produced jointly by:
