| Annotation | This national framework comprises eleven sets of good practice standards with regard to preventing abuse and neglect. Standards 1 and 2 concern joint planning and capability: partnerships and partner organisations. Standards 3 to 5 relate to prevention of abuse and neglect - in the community, within service delivery, and training standards. Responding to abuse and neglect is the theme of Standards 6 to 9: upholding human rights; joint systems; partner agency systems; and effective procedures. Standards 10 and 11 are about access and involvement, and cover equal access to safeguarding services and engaging citizens. The framework has been developed through sn ADSS-led national "Safeguarding Adults" network chaired by Sue Feinnes, and edited by Ruth Ingram. The framework uses existing practice, with adult protection lead managers contributing examples of local good practice devised since the publication of "No secrets" and establishing the protection of vulnerable adults (POVA) policy.
