A video supporting Adult Support and Protection professionals to understand ASP case conferences and to help make them effective for adults at risk. This is a 'bitesize' version of the full online learning resource, Multi-agency Adult Support and Protection conferences (case conferences).
Following on from the Understanding Age report, an online session brought together Learning and Development (L&D) colleagues to understand how they disseminate the resource in their local areas. This report captures their thoughts and experiences, offering insights into the practices - and challenges - of embedding new knowledge within local areas.
This short video explains key concepts relating to professional curiosity. It accompanies the resource pack on the same subject.
Please note that this resource is from an English local authority (Waltham Forest). The context is different but its messages are transferable to Scottish Adult Support and Protection.
This resource pack aims to raise awareness about embedding professional curiosity in practice. It can be used in team meetings, as part of group/individual supervision, or for individual professional development.
It includes several practical tips and practice scenarios. There is an accompanying video explaining key concepts.

This is a seven-minute briefing of the first national multi-agency framework for Adult Support and Protection learning and development. The framework has been produced to support the delivery of Adult Support and Protection learning. Within it, core competencies are set out for each different workforce level (illustrated in this briefing). The framework is intended for all staff and volunteers who might come into contact with adults as part of their role, and applies across all organisations operating in Scotland.
These resources are designed to support the health workforce in relation to child and adult protection responsibilities. The resources will help workers understand and respond appropriately to those being harmed, and those at risk of harm. There are two levels to this resource: Level 1 (informed) and Level 2 (skilled).
This e-learning is part of TURAS and a free account is required to access the resource.

The Scottish Mental Health Law Review (SMHLR) was commissioned in 2019. It was tasked with considering ways to better realise and protect human rights through Scotland's mental health, incapacity and adult support and protection legislation. The Review also looked at ways to remove barriers to care and support for people currently covered by the legislation. The Review’s final report was published in September 2022 and recommends a series of changes to legislation. It also proposes a range of changes to policy and practice in the short, medium, and longer term.
