Monday's Local Authority Demonstration
Three guided scenarios designed for your Monday meeting with the local authority. Each scenario includes talking points, what to show on screen, and direct links to the relevant pages. Run them in order for maximum impact, or pick individual scenarios.
Shows LA how staff use the system every day
Walk through a typical day at Colmer House — from morning handover to daily records, medication administration, key worker sessions, and capturing the child's voice. This demonstrates that Sentinel is a living, breathing system used by every member of staff.
Key message: Every interaction with a child is recorded, timestamped, and attributed to a named staff member — creating an unbroken audit trail.
Shows LA the safeguarding rigour and audit trail
Walk through how Sentinel handles a real incident — from initial recording through investigation, body map documentation, notifications, and follow-up actions. This demonstrates the safeguarding framework that protects children and provides evidence for regulators.
Key message: When something goes wrong, Sentinel ensures nothing falls through the cracks — every step is documented, every notification sent, every action tracked to completion.
Shows LA the regulatory compliance and inspection readiness
Walk through the regulatory compliance framework — from Reg 44 monthly visits through Reg 45 quality reports, SCCIF self-assessment scores, the evidence mapper, and the Annex A snapshot. This demonstrates that Colmer House is always inspection-ready.
Key message: Sentinel means you're never scrambling before an inspection. The evidence is already there, mapped to every SCCIF criterion, updated in real-time.
