Everyone has a right to:
- Live free from violence, fear and abuse
- Be protected from harm and exploitation
- Be independent - which may involve some risk
- Say 'No' to anything they don't fully understand
Ashford and St. Peter's Hospitals NHS Trust ensures there are systems and processes in place to promote the safeguarding and wellbeing of the people we serve. The Trust monitors and develops practice in light of local and national guidelines and works in partnership with patients, their families, carers and other agencies to ensure that it provides a safe environment for all patients.
Ashford and St. Peter's Hospitals NHS Trust recognises and respects patients and carers as individuals and does not discriminate in relation to age, gender, physical disability, mental or sensory impairment, race, culture, class, economic factors, sexual orientation, marital status, politics, religion or any other specific factor.
