Clinical Safeguards Wellness

Meaning

Clinical safeguards in wellness are the comprehensive set of structured policies, procedures, and oversight mechanisms implemented within non-medical health and well-being programs to minimize risk, ensure participant safety, and maintain the ethical integrity of all offered services. These safeguards specifically address the boundary between general health promotion and medical advice, requiring clear referral pathways for abnormal clinical findings or complex health conditions. They function as a critical barrier against inappropriate or harmful interventions in the wellness space.
