Synopsis

Practitioners starting out in the difficult arena of public protection often feel that they are entering a different world, involving its own unique processes and guidelines and, on some occasions, seeming to have a language all of its own. Addressing this lack of information, Multi-agency Safeguarding in a Public Protection World gives practitioners of all professions an overview of the major and very different areas of public protection practice. The authors translate the processes, guidelines and language in order to give readers a clear view of the varied areas of practice that may impact their own working lives. Key learning points and case studies assist practitioners in better understanding the world of public protection in all its guises.
