Description
The principle that we learn from failure is important to learning and improving, and is a central reflection point when thinking about risk. However, the fear of failure remains strongly embedded in social care culture. When thinking about risk and risk assessment in Adult Support and Protection, over-cautious practice may reduce creativity and innovation. It may even act as a barrier to promoting outcomes that an adult at risk wants. This resource encourages thinking about risk in a holistic way, including considering the risk inherent in maintaining the status quo.
