Social work with vulnerable adults is becoming increasingly centred
on a key piece of legislation: the Mental Capacity Act. The Act
provides a framework for protecting the vulnerable while allowing
those who may lack capacity to have certain safeguards enshrined in
law. This book will help support students to learn two things:
first, how the Mental Capacity Act operates and what its key
principles are when applied to safeguarding adults; and second,
what are the compassionate skills and values that need to be
interwoven with legislative knowledge? The authors show how these
two principles interact and inform one another and how taking a
person-centred approach to safeguarding vulnerable adults will mean
better outcomes for the individual and our wider society.
