Kate Fennell from the School of Health and Social Care, Edinburgh Napier University, is inviting members to participate in ‘An exploration of participation by service users in adult protection case conferences’ research study.
The aim of this research is to understand how people are meaningfully participating in their Adult Protection Case Conference (APCC). The research focusses specifically on the case conference because it is a key stage of the adult protection process where the protection plan is developed. This plan has potentially life changing implications for the person.
The researcher aims to interview independent advocacy workers, social workers, APCC chairs, and adults at risk. A thematic analysis of the findings will be written up and disseminated to participants and the adult support and practice community of practice.
