Chronologies

Chronologies are a core component of social work. They are a key way of recording and understanding the sequence of a person’s life, their support and the decisions they have taken (and the decisions others have taken about them). Improving chronology practice is important across all areas of social work and therefore, the resources in this section might have wider relevance than Adult Support and Protection alone.

Form: Recording initial Adult Support and Protection inquiries and investigations (Angus)

This form is used in Angus for recording initial inquiries and investigations. It makes clear the delineation between initial adult protection inquiries and full adult protection investigations. It is used by all council officers in Angus. Includes a template to record chronologies of significant events. Use of this form has contributed to positive inspection results in Angus.
