- Abstract
The article examines some qualitative data from the second phase semi-structured interviews conducted with 92 adult social care practitioners from 23 local authority social service departments in Great Britain. Protection rights and confusion about the type of information that could be shared legally between agencies were the barrier identified. According to most respondents, greater involvement and empowerment of service users in the adult protection process is one way of enhancing the system .
