ASPire 2026: Supported self-evaluation

Remote video URL
Description

This is an ASPire webinar from January 2026. Its themes are supported self-evaluation, notably of adults for whom it is difficult to determine the three-point criteria, and risk assessment. The focus is especially on adults where there are escalating risks, repeated presentations or continuous referral to services.

After an opening session by Marion Sandilands of the Care Inspectorate, explaining the work of supported self-evaluation, there are presentations from local partners (South Lanarkshire, Moray, Dumfries & Galloway). Finally, Alan Laughland of East Lothian and Midlothian Public Protection Committee discusses risk assessment, notably the TILS framework (Type of harm, Imminence, Likelihood, Severity of impact).

Slides for all sessions are also attached, along with a strengthening analysis exercise.
