AnnotationThe police are key partners in adult protection work locally, and take lead responsibility in investigating alleged crimes committed against vulnerable adults in our communities. They therefore play a critical role in many serious and complex adult protection investigations. A detective constable and a detective inspector describe how a large police service has organised its adult protection resources, and map out how the basic processes and responsibilities involved in leading criminal investigations involving vulnerable adults. They use a case study approach to identify and examine the different demands criminal work brings at the inter-agency, agency and case levels, and identify solutions and pointers for best practice.
