Feb 2013 - Oct 2019
As well as being a frontline social worker, providing the initial response to the identification of potential risks to child safety in Surrey, I am involved in all aspects of safeguarding children including assessments, interviewing children, child protection investigations, assisting and advising partner agencies on child protection cases, as well as preparing reports for court proceedings. I engage with local law enforcement and health services promoting and implementing safeguarding policies and procedures. In addition, I assist them in overcoming challenges when collaborating with Children Services, including the development of their safeguarding procedures and policies. I am ABE (Achieving Best Evidence) trained which helps me to carry out child protection investigations through interviewing children. I carry out assessments to identify children’s holistic needs and risks and the impact of these on children’s development. This involves working closely, and carrying out direct intervention work with, the child and the family and liaising with schools, health and other partner agencies to ensure a child is safe and is progressing in life.

Social Work Assistant:Integrated Service Team My role was to promote the Common Assessment Framework (CAF) agenda among professionals, partner agencies and in the community. I trained professionals and partner agencies around how to carry out the assessment of children’s and families’ needs, the understanding of thresholds for safeguarding children and their welfare, and how to make referrals to children’s services which identify children at risk. I also assisted organisations (schools, mental health teams, youth services) and individuals in the identification of, and planning for, children with additional needs. Show less
