Serious Case Review

The Association of Directors of Adult Social Services says that the holding of a Serious Case Review (SCR) is considered as good practice in response to serious harm of a vulnerable adult, when questions are raised about the circumstances in which this happened and where concerns have been expressed about the adequacy of the response of relevant agencies in working together to safeguard the vulnerable adult.
