Professional Guidance

Many professionals are involved when a SUDI occurs. The interactions between the different professionals and agencies have a bearing on the ongoing investigation and in particular the effect the experience has on the parents/ carers. Not all professions will be involved in every SUDI, but some disciplines such as child protection will be contacted routinely and may become involved if required.

This section allows users to access information and resources relating to all professions that may be involved with a SUDI.

By clicking on the professions listed, you can access and view all the information, resources and professional guidance as:

• Information text
• Individual professional SUDI flow charts or
• Interactive timelines for both the entire process and the SUDI review.

Each of the above demonstrates the role and responsibilities of individual professions and highlights the possible interactions with others involved in a SUDI.

You may download, print or email resources to access and collect the professional SUDI information required from individual guidance. The clipboard facilitates the downloading, printing or emailing of multiple resources.
