Was Not Brought - Did Not Attend - No Access Visit Policy (P88)
The purpose of this document is to outline the responsibilities of Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust (DCHS) staff when parents/carers disengage from health services and there are concerns about the welfare of children and adults in their care. Laming (2003) and learning from serious case reviews and safeguarding adult reviews show that disengagement from healthcare may be partial, intermittent, persistent or terminal in nature. It is widely acknowledged that ‘was not brought’/‘non-attendance’ and avoidance of seeing health staff can be a sign that things are not as they should be within the family and/or person’s life. This may have serious consequences for some children and adults dependent on others to meet their care and support needs. It may also signal potential abuse or neglect. It is imperative that early non engagement with services is identified in order for health practitioners to consider if this is a safeguarding concern that requires a safeguarding referral, safety planning or escalation.
