This chapter introduces the concept of safeguarding in the context of community nursing practice. A lifespan approach is taken to support the application of theory to practice to capture a broad audience. Key to enabling confidence in decision-making is the application of legislation and an evidence base; this chapter aims to provide a foundation for safe practice and discusses approaches applicable to the varied roles of the community nurse. The chapter uses case studies and vignettes to example multi-agency working and safe decision-making in caring for populations throughout the life course. In considering the case studies, the reader is given an opportunity to consider multi-agency working and apply safeguarding practice to varied populations where boundaries of nursing practice crossover and merge. This chapter provides an introduction for nurses to continue to build upon in their roles but will form the basis of safe decision-making.

The opportunity to discuss immunisations should be taken at every opportunity and should be asked about in every history. There is a lot of misinformation about vaccinations that can scare parents into avoiding them for their children. Although the law requires consent from only one individual with parental responsibility, immunisation should not be undertaken if there is disagreement between those with parental responsibility until both parents agree, or until there is specific court approval for immunisation in the child's best interests Parents/carers may raise concerns regarding the safety of vaccines. Concerns linking specific vaccines to specific diseases have variable bases in scientific fact. They are often exaggerated and distorted by both the media and online community. Different immunisation schedules exist for immunocompromised children.

This chapter starts by distinguishing safeguarding from child protection and illustrates how, as governments have changed, our practice has changed also. It is noted how ideas related to social inequalities result in different outcomes for children. The consideration of safeguarding is extended by considering ideas, legislation and technologies relating to sexual activity and the contradictory issues raised in relation to selfies and the possession of indecent images. The chapter ends by using cases of child abuse to explore managerialism and practice with children.
