Strategic System Leadership and Quality Assurance
Provide health representation within the Multi-Agency Child Protection Team (MACPT), contributing to partnership performance monitoring, audits and safeguarding practice reviews. Deliver expert, highly specialised advice and support across the health economy on all safeguarding matters relating to children and young people.
Represent and articulate agreed health system positions within programme governance arrangements, design forums and multi-agency working groups, reducing the need for routine escalation to senior ICB leadership. Work with health providers and commissioners to agree how health practitioners contribute to MACPT and Family Help Teams, Section 47 enquiries, child protection conferences and statutory decision-making processes. This includes establishing clear escalation pathways and ensuring access to medical expertise and advice where concerns about significant harm arise.
Support the alignment of health pathways, including 0-19 services and relevant community health provision, with the end-to-end Families First Partnership Programme (FFPP) model, avoiding duplication, fragmentation and parallel processes.
Lead and support the design and mobilisation of MACPTs by shaping and agreeing health's contribution to ensure that service models reflect statutory safeguarding responsibilities, local health system realities and the expectations set out in Working Together to Safeguard Children (2023).
