This episode introduces the different types and means by which someone falls under the umbrella of the safeguarding of adults from two 39 Essex Chambers barristers. What is meant by an adult who lacks mental capacity? In what scenario are they considered to need safeguarding? Through the analysis of The Care Act, they give their thoughts on the obligations of care workers and the steps that can be taken to uphold safeguarding protections. Katie and Nyasha clearly explain how authorities, carers and individuals can understand their responsibility to those who are considered unable to take meaningful steps to protect their persons and their interests.
