With the identification of the five national priorities (http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Health/Support-Social-Care/Adult-Support-Protection/National-Priorities), adult protection in Scotland is developing at pace.  Capita’s National Adult Support and Protection Conference is ideally timed to address the changing landscape of support and protection for at-risk adults.

Delivery of support services is being overhauled: national implementation of Self-directed Support is ongoing, while the personalisation programme commences early next year.

Attend this conference and learn how you can strike a balance between the twin considerations of individual risk and personal autonomy. It is essential that you are equipped to deal with the challenges ahead.
