Welcome to the Trafford Adult Policies, Procedures and Practice (APPP) resource.
The Using this APPP Resource page provides information about this site and its main features.
Details of recent Amendments to the APPP resource held in one place, so it’s easy to see the latest updates.
This Portal has been designed so that everyone is aware of the correct policy, procedure and statutory guidance and staff are clear on what they are expected to do and the standards they must work to. This Portal is easy to navigate and gives staff instant access to the most up to date information they need. It helps to ensure we focus on delivering first class care and support within the requirements of the Care Act, and that knowledge of the most up to date standards, policy and procedure supports decision making.
The nature of our work means that we respond to the needs of some of Trafford’s most vulnerable citizens, and the work we do has to be right first time, be delivered in a timely and professional manner and, wherever possible, support adults’ preferred outcomes to a high standard. This Portal is designed to support that process.
Adult safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do and underpins all our work. Therefore it is important that staff familiarise themselves with the Safeguarding Adults Procedures.
This Portal will be updated on a regular basis. It contains links to the Trafford Council website and the Trafford Directory.
Finally, this Portal will help all the partners we work with understand our policies and procedures. We hope that it will be a valuable reference resource for everyone involved in supporting adults, so that we deliver even better care and support for people living in our neighbourhoods across Trafford.
