Health policies

This area provides access to Barnardo’s health-related policies and guidance, which are designed to support a safe, healthy, and inclusive working environment for all colleagues, volunteers, stakeholders, children and young people.

Our commitment to health and wellbeing is integral to our values. These policies outline our responsibilities and expectations in areas such as the administration of medication and reporting medication errors. The health team are currently developing a suite of health policies which will be uploaded here as they are approved. The policies are regularly reviewed to ensure compliance with current legislation and alignment with best practices.

Colleagues working with children and young people should familiarise themselves with the contents of this section and to consult their line manager if there are any questions or concerns.
