Learning from Learning Reviews: Self-neglect and hoarding (Aberdeen)

This video and one-page briefing share practice from Aberdeen’s experiences when working with people with hoarding and/or self-neglecting behaviour. The material prompts practitioners to think about what might be the reasons for the person’s behaviour and the possible impacts. It also addresses when an Adult Support and Protection referral should be considered. Relationship building, multi-agency working, and the balance of ‘choice’ and risk are all considered.
