KMSAB Policies & Procedures

Please note: the multi-agency safeguarding adults policy, procedures and practitioner guidance for Kent and Medway has been updated in light of recent changes within KCC Adult Safeguarding. We are currently in the process of updating our sub policies to also reflect these changes.

For information, where policies refer to the ‘Kent Adult Safeguarding Alert Form (KASAF)’, this has now been replaced with the Kent Adult Safeguarding Concern Form, accessed on this link: Adult safeguarding forms - Kent County Council

The previous Central Referral Unit (CRU) email address, used to raise Safeguarding Concerns, has now been replaced with the email addresses below. Please use the email appropriate to the area related to the Safeguarding Concern:
