Serious case reviews

Serious case reviews are not inquiries into how an adult died or suffered injury or who is culpable. They are carried out to fulfil 4 main purposes:

  1. To determine if there are lessons to be learnt from the case about the way local professionals and agencies worked together
  2. To review the effectiveness of the safeguarding adults policy and protocols
  3. To inform and improve local inter-agency safeguarding practice
  4. To prepare an overview report and make recommendations for future action(s).
