The Enquiry Sample Clauses

The Enquiry. The objectives of an enquiry into abuse or neglect are to:  establish facts;  explore concerns further with the person expressing concern;  ascertain the adult’s wishes and views, or their representative’s;  establish perceived risk;  assess the needs of the adult for protection, support and redress and how they might be met;  protect from the abuse and neglect, in accordance with the adult’s views and wishes;  make decisions on necessary follow up action with regard to the person or organisation responsible for the abuse or neglect; and  enable the adult to achieve resolution and recovery (14.78). Practitioners should seek the consent of the person before taking action, however there may be circumstances when consent cannot be obtained because the adult lacks the capacity to give it. In such circumstances the adult’s best interests should be considered when determining whether to undertake an enquiry. Whether or not the adult has capacity to give consent, action may need to be taken if others are or will be put at risk if nothing is done or where it is in the public interest to take action because a criminal offence has occurred (14.79). If obtaining consent would increase the risk to the adult then action should be taken and a plan to obtain consent and safely support involvement must be considered at an early stage.
