Description
Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults and the Law by Michael Mandelstam provides a comprehensive legal framework for understanding the protection of vulnerable adults. This book covers an extensive range of areas, including Department of Health guidance, human rights, regulation of health and social care providers, and more. It examines how these laws apply to vulnerable adults, drawing on a significant body of case law to illustrate key points. The book also explores how local authorities and the NHS may inadvertently cause harm to vulnerable adults through abuse, neglect, or omission. This makes it an essential resource for professionals working in community care, adult social work, healthcare, and housing. Local authorities, the NHS, voluntary organisations, and students will find this book invaluable for its insight into safeguarding vulnerable adults and the law.
