Adult Support and Protection: General awareness (seven-minute briefing)
Useful for: All who work directly with adults in any context
Adult Support and Protection (ASP) is everyone’s business. This 7-minute briefing sets out what ASP is, defines an adult at risk, sets out the legal framework and contains several links to further resources.
It is especially useful for those who work outside of ASP, but who still need core knowledge: particularly the Wider and General Workforces as set out in the National Framework for Adult Support and Protection Learning and Development in Scotland.
