​We are pleased to advise that the revised Decision Making Framework is now available.

The framework seeks to provide support to practitioners, partners and providers, working within the adult sector, to report and respond to concerns at the appropriate levels and to have a consistency of approach across all agencies. The framework also includes low, medium and high risk examples across different types of abuse.

To support the launch of the framework, Service Managers in North Northamptonshire and West Northamptonshire Council’s held online sessions for practitioner to understand how the framework can be used for making decisions on safeguarding concerns. The session was recorded and can be accessed on YouTube.

The framework can be accessed on the Policies, Procedures and Strategies page.
