Prevent

GPs are required to demonstrate level 3 understanding of identifying, responding and working within a multi-agency context in relation to Prevent concerns. All other practice staff are required to complete Basic Prevent Awareness training. The following is a guide for how to meet the requirements.    

All practice staff should complete level 1 adult-safeguarding e-learning and clinical staff level 2. These can be accessed for free via NHS Health Education England's e-Learning for Healthcare Hub. These packages also meet the requirements for Prevent Basic Awareness training without having to complete a separate basic training for this.

GPs can also complete the Preventing Radicalisation Level 3 session (released January 2018) and e-assessment on the e-LfH Hub within the Statutory and Mandatory Programme. Log in and register to access the course.
