Executive Summary Published

An Executive Summary has been published of an independently authored Serious Case Review into the death of a 77 year-old person in May 2012. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The Serious Case Review (SCR) was carried out under the Wales Interim Policy & Procedures for the Protection of Vulnerable Adults from Abuse (2013). ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The primary purpose of a SCR carried out under this guidance is to: ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

• Establish whether there are lessons to be learned from the case about the way in which local professionals and agencies work together to safeguard vulnerable adults;
• Identify clearly what those lessons are, how they will be acted upon, and what is expected to change as a result;
• Improve inter-agency working, and better protection and support of vulnerable adults.

The report was commissioned by the Pembrokeshire Adult Protection Committee, which accepts the recommendations for multi-agency learning made by the report. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
