Asked by:
Dr Rosena Allin-Khan (Labour)

Victims of stalking can access a range of healthcare services depending on their clinical needs, and healthcare services are increasingly becoming trauma-informed, including mental health community care and sexual assault and abuse services.

The Intercollegiate Document ‘Adult Safeguarding: Roles and Competencies for Health Care Staff’ sets out the safeguarding knowledge, skills and attitudes required by staff working in health and care settings. All healthcare staff must undertake mandatory safeguarding training.
