| Annotation | In England, adult safeguarding has received increased attention in recent years and is a government priority. This paper describes the methodology being used in a study exploring the organisation of adult safeguarding. A mixed-methods study is presented which describes how the research team is seeking to identify models of adult safeguarding and then to compare them using a quasi-experimental study design. Close examination of this study's methodology highlights the potential value of mixed-method research approaches. Anticipated study challenges include difficulties with gaining agreement from study sites, and recruitment of people who have been the subject of a safeguarding referral. (RH). |
