Adult Boundary Training

Boundaries are essential in adult safeguarding to maintain respectful, safe relationships and prevent abuse or exploitation.

 
Petros delivers specialised training to help professionals understand and manage boundaries with adults at risk.

Our training explores different types of boundaries including physical, emotional and professional, and the challenges posed by dual relationships or power imbalances. We provide practical guidance on recognising boundary crossings and how to address them constructively.

We also cover legal and ethical frameworks related to adult safeguarding boundaries, promoting reflective practice and self-awareness among staff. This helps prevent harm and supports a culture of respect and accountability.

 

 
 
By strengthening adult boundary management, organisations enhance trust, improve care quality and reduce safeguarding risks.
