The National Standards Sample Clauses

The National Standards. The Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) has published a National Standards document in conjunction with key partners including the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC). This framework is intended to consolidate the experience to date and to further the development of 'Safeguarding Adults at Risk' work throughout England. The implementation of the eleven good practices (Standards) in every local area will lead to the development of consistent, high quality adult protection work across the country. (See Appendix C for a headline copy of the National Standard Framework). This agreement has been produced in compliance with the National Standard Framework, and the signing of this agreement will help the signatories comply with the Framework in particular Standards 1, 4 and 8. It has been recognised that a number of agencies may be involved in different aspects of the care and support of an adult at risk and this agreement will contribute to achieving the aims of building strong multi-agency partnerships at a local level with agreed working practices in response to instances of abuse and neglect. By effective information sharing among the Signatory Organisations and drawing upon partner organisations’ specialist skill sets, all Signatory Organisations can offer the best possible service to safeguard adults at risk and make a positive impact on public protection.
