AnnotationThe registration and inspection of residential care services for vulnerable adults rests with local government, but in 2002 responsibility passes to the new National Care Standards Commission (NCSC). This paper looks at how inspection units understand and respond to adult protection issues; considers how they contribute to multi-agency adult protection; and speculates on how planned changes will impact on policy and practice.
