Module 4 - Referrals & Safeguarding Practice
This badge recognises competence in professional judgment about when residents need specialist support. The earner can distinguish between situations appropriate for Career Ally support (Green), those requiring qualified coach referrals (Amber), and emergency situations needing immediate escalation (Red). They use effective language to make positive referrals that feel like natural next steps rather than rejection, and understand safeguarding procedures for domestic abuse, suicide risk, and child protection concerns.
