🔍 Why does Organisational Abuse happen?

It’s often linked to:
• Poor leadership
• Understaffing and pressure
• Closed or defensive cultures
• Lack of training or oversight

The impact can be serious - loss of dignity, emotional distress, and harm.

💪Strong leadership and open cultures are key to safer care.

TSAB can support you to prioritise safeguarding in your organisation!
