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 supervision to ensure that the findings are disseminated widely. Some of the key themes covered in this briefing are mental health, discharge planning arrangements, medical interactions with physical health concerns, and examples of good practice.
