The safety of local adults at risk of harm has been maintained throughout the pandemic due to strong partnership working in West Lothian according to a new report.
A recent Care Inspectorate led joint inspection of adult support and protection in West Lothian highlighted both a number of areas of strength and those that require further improvement.
Key strengths included: the collaboration between council, health and police staff who make up the adult protection partnership; the comprehensive, rolling quality assurance programme instigated within the partnership and how strategic leadership efficiently managed adult support and protection during the pandemic.
