Safeguarding

Air Liquide Healthcare is committed to safeguarding children and adults across the organisation. The welfare of the people who come into contact with our services either directly or indirectly is paramount and all our staff have a responsibility to ensure that best practice is followed, including compliance with statutory requirements.

As part of our commitment to safeguarding we have appointed a Safeguarding Information Officer and have a Safeguarding Policy which is linked to local NHS authorities where we provide services.
