What are the objectives?

To provide Participants with:

  • To explore intervention and the application of professional judgement in increasingly complex situations; to consider and evaluate personal practice; to manage ethical issues, dilemmas and conflicts; to assess needs, risks and circumstances in partnership with those involved; to agree risk management plans to promote independence and responsibility; the opportunity to consider the implication of risk and ethical issues when making professional judgements

How will it make a difference?
