How SCIE are guiding good practice on adult protection

Abstract

Purpose

This short briefing aims to discuss Social Care Institute for Excellence's (SCIE's) work in safeguarding adults.

Design/methodology/approach

SCIE has produced a research briefing on self‐directed support and personal budgets, and work on restraint, personalisation and risk as well as other projects that promote best practice in adult protection.

Findings

Placing the person at the centre of safeguarding processes will support practitioners to move away from “service‐led” procedure‐focused responses.

Originality/value

Together, these resources aim to improve access to up‐to‐date knowledge. This will support the rapid pace of change in safeguarding practice.
