This is a complete guide to safeguarding adults in frontline practice. Based on legal framework set out in the Care Act 2014, this new manual shows how to interpret the law and how to implement these principles in frontline practice. It also includes case studies to help recognise common issues, and tools for risk assessment.
A welcomed addition that will assist in the understanding of the ever-increasing complexities and multiagency challenges of working within the field of adults at risk during times of austerity. The text certainly complements an emerging readership so ideal for any social work academic or policy researcher, practice educator, staff trainer, experienced or newly-qualified practitioners working within adult health and social care statutory or provider services. Each chapter covers key areas of core knowledge, practice, skills, values and principles that assist in effective person-centred interventions and outcomes. The book is well-structured with each incremental chapter written in a clear, accessible style supplemented by summarised key points, applied case studies, tables and diagrams devised by a competent practitioner-author. I will certainly be adding this text to my safeguarding modular recommended reading lists.
