ASPire 2024: Case of 'AB' (Mental Welfare Commission)

This video, from the ASPire 2024 conference, explores the case of 'AB'. This person had mild-moderate learning disabilities and a long-term medical condition, and died aged 52. Alongside AB, the case highlights the role of CD, who repeatedly thwarted AB's access to medical care and support. The video outlines lessons to be learned for the future, particularly considering the issue of undue pressure.
