George and Peter Overview Report
It is important that lessons are learned from Safeguarding Adult Reviews. A learning briefing has been created for professionals to use in individual learning, team meeting briefings or individual supervisions to ensure that the findings are disseminated widely. Some of the key themes covered in this briefing are working with individuals who are alcohol dependent, self-neglect, mental capacity, barriers to engagement, the use of the section 42 framework, deteriorating health conditions, exploitation and fire risk, as well as highlighting examples of good practice.
