Summary
Joint inspections are one aspect of the Scottish Government’s improvement plan for adult support and protection in Scotland. The plan builds on the thematic inspections of adult support and protection that were undertaken in 2017-18. Scrutiny of practice is essential for robust public assurance of practice standards, for identifying national themes and priorities, and for enriching and complementing the learning that takes places locally.
Key areas of focus are emerging, and in the spirit of continuous improvement, it is prudent to share these at an early juncture.
We trust that adult protection partnerships will consider the following overview report and review practice in accordance with the emerging findings.
