Social work is anchored by human rights. This #HumanRightsDay we encourage social workers to reflect on their vital role - ensuring the basic rights and freedoms that belong to everyone, regardless of where they're from, what they believe or how they choose to live their lives.

#reflectivepractice Social Work Cats and Rockets: can't put it down. Will write a full review for my CPD when finished. It's reminded me why I am a passionate advocate for Mental Capacity and DoLS being a part of every day practice. It's absolutely about human rights 1/3

Learning from Safeguarding Adults Reviews is good safeguarding practice. @SomersetSAB has recently published a SAR into the death of 'Luke'. Recommendations may be relevant elsewhere around mental capacity, self neglect, record keeping & auditing #ACTSafeguardingHour
The @somersetSAB has published a Safeguarding Adults Review in to the death of โ€˜Lukeโ€™: bit.ly/3g9dYe6 The focus of the report is on how agencies worked together in their approach to Luke and concerns about his mental capacity and neglect of his own wellbeing.

We will not be able to celebrate #SafeguardingAdultsWeek in the usual way. You can still use social media to share resources or host virtual events. Let us know how you will be raising awareness! buff.ly/2PKPcXm

I remember feeling uncertain around how theory linked to practice during my degree. I found it much more relatable when I applied it to practice. I thought it might be helpful to share my practice and link to theory. Here's my first attempt! .. youtu.be/bhhIf0q25uc
